Ben Schwartz (entrepreneur)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Advert for non notable trader. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Has a lot of sources but none are suitable sources that provide any depth of coverage about him. He is quoted a few times but nothing about him. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:38, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Subject does not seem to be primary topic for any of the references, notability not backed up. Chris  lk02  Chris Kreider 15:31, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete the fact that his name appears in articles does not make him notable.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:46, 10 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - as the nominator says, he has been used as an opinion piece once or twice, but nothing more. I can't see any way of writing a neutral article and salvaging this. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  06:14, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - subject has been frequently quoted by the press as an expert, which conveys some level of notability. However, I was unable to find any independent, reliable sources that are even slightly biographical, so there is nothing to write an article around. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:21, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
