Dave Hanley

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Hanley founded a social media marketing firm that grew to about 50 employees and then was purchased by a bigger company. This is not the stuff of notability. Beyond this, the first 2 sources not only are not about Hanley, they do not even seem to mention him. The 3rd source is about Hanley, but it was created by Hanley as part of the "I'm a Mormon" campaign. In this campaign individuals create profiles of themselves. Even when things are a step up and there is filming of the person, the creation is not in any way indepdent of the subject. We have no sources that are indepdent, 3rd party and about the subject, so we have no choice but to delete. John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:08, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as literally nothing but a personal business job listing here, there's nothing close to substance, let alone a notable article. SwisterTwister   talk  05:19, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
