The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was soft delete. WP:REFUND applies. This has been a poorly attended AfD but there is a light consensus for deletion. There have been no comments for over a fortnight so I don't think that yet another reist can be justified. Just Chilling (talk) 20:39, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It does not appear he has directed any notable films, or founded any notable companies. The various listings in "outstanding young entrepreneur in Michigan " and the like are just PR. The references as well, as either Pr, rivial, or both. DGG ( talk ) 07:46, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete not every company head is notable, and there is just plain not enough coverage to show notability in other ways.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:29, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I do not think that being included in 50 Names to know in information technology – Crain’s Detroit Business can be considered public relations. Crain's Detroit Business is a reliable source and I think it made its judgements independently. Even of the person or his company asked for him to be included, the decision to include him was that of a journalist based on journalistic criteria. (Or at lest that seems to be the case to me from a considerable distance from Detroit.) US Pan Asian American Chamber of Commerce Education Foundation's list may have been created in part to promote its members and the reference is a press release, but it may be notable depending on the media attention it received. Ernst & Young's list is valid if it received appropriate media attention. An big accounting firm talking about itself does not create notability, but when it talks about others in a context where it is not trying to pomote a client or supplier, it is probably a reliable source. The India West reference isn't very good (it doesn't define the acronym ILA), but hanging out with the Indian ambassador suggests that something is important.
