Not seeing independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources, either those in the article or elsewhere online - lack of WP:SIGCOV. Fails WP:GNG. Run-of-the-mill businessman. Edwardx (talk) 12:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Edwardx, subject meets the minimum threshold for meeting notability by the English Wikipedia standards of three articles. Article has about 8 articles referenced to meet the notability and more over the article is a Stub which indicates the article meets the minimum threshold and is subject to improvement. I believe those should be measures that should be pointed at when issues of deletion comes up. Owula kpakpo (talk) 12:21, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    • Hello, can you direct me to where the English Wikipedia minimum threshold is established at three? And the scope of GNG is more than number, are the 8 sources you mentioned independent and reliable? NiklausGerard (talk) 21:23, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
