The best source in this article is Associated Press: "Scott Woodward’s career has been nothing short of remarkable. With his keen eye for creativity and unwavering work ethic, Woodward has risen to the top of the advertising industry through a journey that has been both interesting and unexpected." we are told - the issue being that this is 'contributed content' - a press release. Little else exists here to demonstrate notability - passing mentions, (gushy) interviews and pieces about the brands the subject has worked with. The edit history would also appear to involve the subject's own work on this page. All in all, we clearly fail WP:GNG once we get beyond the window dressing. Even the picture was uploaded by an SPA... Alexandermcnabb (talk) 05:30, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete WP:NOTLINKEDIN, very standard professional profile. If the subject meets WP:N, delete history / TNT and allow interested editors to write an encyclopedia article in its place. —siroχo 11:13, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Not enough here to justify a standalone article for this person. Possibly some COI here as well. User:Let'srun 18:20, 3 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
