Per Talk:Steve Chilton#Sourcing and a good faith search for independent reliable sources, the subject of this article appears to fail WP:ANYBIO. There are also WP:PROMO concerns, as highlighted on the talk page. Notwithstanding Chilton's achievements, he seems to be merely one member of multidisciplinary teams which have created some (admittedly award-winning) designs. Chilton's credited with lead involvement in Villa Hush Hush, but I don't know if that's notable and anyway, WP:NOTINHERITED applies here as with the other projects. I wish you all the best in your endeavours, Mr Chilton. -- Trevj (talk) 05:54, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2012 September 18. Snotbot t • c » 06:02, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Snotbot. The automated script doesn't seem to work with XScope under Android, and I had edit conflicts when trying to do step 3 manually. -- Trevj (talk) 06:05, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - have to agree with the nomination; just doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG. Plenty of "GoogleHits" but most of the articles in question are one-off mentions, not "significant coverage" of the subject. Though it does not go to WP:N, there are obvious concerns about WP:COI given the original editor shares a name with the company the subject helped to establish.

Delete - At first I hoped this could be saved by the Royal Academy summer exhibition which is apparently similar to a regional state fair. The article reads "Over £70,000 prize money, including the £25,000 Charles Wollaston Award, is awarded each year at the Summer Exhibition. Winners include Gerard Hemsworth (2000), Marc Quinn (2001), Jake and Dinos Chapman (2003). However those cited are artists. Architects and others pay for their entries and prizes are given out. This makes a big difference in notability. And without that, this person is not notable. Jrcrin001 (talk) 06:41, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Hyper Tower, there is some more coverage, but (unless coupled with Villa Hush Hush and any further info demonstrating notability) it'd account for WP:BLP1E AFAICS. -- Trevj (talk) 12:08, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- The fact that he worked on a project as an employee of another firm is probably NN. It is not clear that any of the solo projects have in fact resulted in the building of a notable builing. I thus think him to be a NN architect. The Royal Academy is an art institution, so that I fail to see how it could be relevant to architecture. Anyway havine a work hung in their exhibition is too commonplace among artists to be a major achievement. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:39, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
