No evidence of non-inherited notability. Reads like a resume. -- haminoon  ( talk ) 23:40, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - this article was already kept just recently and the argument was valid —Мандичка YO 😜 11:08, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Unless it is determined that CEO's of large companies are automatically notable, this does not pass WP:GNG in terms of sources. Also, yet another CEO article by blocked sock User:Editingright LaMona (talk) 03:42, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep, (I was going to say tentative, as I don't have much experience with these sorts of bios but wiki tells us to be bold...:)). Meets WP:GNG and probably also WP:ANYBIO - "2.The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field." Calantzopoulos' specific field is the tobacco industry. Here are some of the numerous citations brought up in a google search (could more experienced editors please comment on them, specifically those that are deemed not useable):  - 'Tobacco CEO: If you start smoking, try this' - interview discussing new product, - 'Philip Morris (PM) Names André Calantzopoulos as CEO' - "Under their combined leadership, PMI has solidified its position as the largest and most profitable international tobacco company," and "Under André’s leadership as Chief Operating Officer, we have successfully increased our revenues even in difficult operating and economic environments..", - 'Plain packaging and currency swings weigh on Philip Morris' - article discusses effect of plain packing on PM and quotes Calantzopoulos on what PM will do,  - 'philip morris international (PM:New York Consolidated): André Calantzopoulos' - resumé (I wonder how much checking these organisations make?) , - 'Andre Calantzopoulos CEO at Philip Morris' short bio and breakdown of his earnings from PM - at over usd14mill does this show from a monetary pov his commercial notability? , - 'Philip Morris Readies Aggressive Global Push Division Spinoff Enables Blitz of New Products; High-Tar Smokes in Asia' - analysis of PM new products and reorganisation with quotes from Calantzopoulos. Of course, this article could also be merged into Philip Morris International if deemed not warrenting a stand-alone article. Coolabahapple (talk) 09:13, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
