This article needs more references and more content to demonstrate the notability of David Channing Williams. Eddie Blick (talk) 19:31, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - notability is not inherited just because he was the CEO of a big company. There is a lack of available reliable sources on the subject, except for a few books which mention him briefly. Fails WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO. Quasar G ^{t - c} 22:06, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - note that had he been the CEO of Vodafone itself, we probably should've taken a second and third look. But he was appointed as the head of Vodafone-UK - just the (large) UK branch. I tried to look for more sources - didn't find much beyond an appointment as a director in a different company in 2001.Icewhiz (talk) 19:39, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
