Delete fails WP:GNG as above mentioned.Jjj84206 (talk) 15:50, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I've updated the article with a few more references and clarified the subject's claim to notability. Under his directorship, the first uranium mine in the history of Western Australia was approved. He is also the President of South Australia's mining and energy lobby (SACOME). While the uranium mining sector tends to keep a low profile generally, it is important globally as the sole source of feedstock for nuclear fuel. --Danimations (talk) 01:28, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - sources added by Danimations make the subject notable enough to meet GNG. Deus et lex (talk) 02:02, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete agree this fails WP:GNG. This level of executives is not of encyclopaedic value. Teraplane (talk) 23:55, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - he has received coverage in multiple independent sources, and has been significantly involved in nuclear and uranium exploration in Australia. How does this not meet GNG? Deus et lex (talk) 07:17, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete a few passing mentions and annoucements of his appointment as CEO do not help to establish notability.Faizal batliwala (talk) 15:04, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The sources that are actual published texts are mostly just mentions of his name with little information about him. The source that has most content is the finfeed article, but that one is clearly just a rehashed press release (see for example obvious PR phrases like "outstanding opportunity", "high quality and advanced uranium targets", "longstanding and beneficial relationships"). Until significant coverage is found in reliable sources (WP:RS), tha article should be deleted. Pax:Vobiscum (talk) 10:37, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - instead of just complaining why don't you be helpful and look for some sources? I don't see how delete comments like this help in any way. Deus et lex (talk) 11:46, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The sources don't provide enough biographical info - only that he heads up several mining companies. I did a quick Google search and couldn't find any info about his early life, such as education and early career, which you'd expect to see if someone were notable enough to be profiled in independent media.
