This article had been tagged for speedy deletion per CSD G11; I declined the speedy because the page does not look unambiguously and exclusively promotional. But due to the rationale given for the speedy tag per the respective edit summary in the article's revision history, I felt that I should take this article to AfD for discussion. --SoCalSuperEagle (talk) 22:17, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Article was created by NMS Bill, a now-inactive editor who discloses that Pete Snyder is his employer. Of the sources cited, the few reputable third-party ones substantiate an article about Snyder's company, not the man himself. Does not meet Wikipedia notability guidelines. -- DanielKlotz (talk · contribs) 03:38, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Just following up on the note above, I think a valid point is made regarding the sourcing. The article is not quite up-to-date, and as a result it happens to omit multiple reliable sources which have published articles primarily about the individual. These sources should be of help in properly establishing Notability:
I would update the article with some of these sources (the Washington Post article is most relevant in establishing WP:N); however in seeking to best uphold Wikipedia's COI policies (the subject of the article is the president of my present employer) I felt it ideal to leave such decisions up to others independent of the subject. On the same accord, I leave this as a comment instead of a keep/delete. Hope that this additional information and context is helpful and constructive in evaluating the article at hand. --Jeff Bedford (talk) 20:44, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep- References provided show longterm coverage by broad major WP:RS with little overlap of content, some understandably longer than others; establishes WP:N. Dru of Id (talk) 12:05, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep based on the sources provided by Jeff if an appropriate selection are added to the article. --joe deckertalk to me 05:17, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep - some of the article have passing mentions, such as this brief mention, but overall I think there's enough for WP:GNG. Bearian (talk) 21:04, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
