The result was Speedy keep. Contrary to Euroflux's notability and reliable sources claim, the article contains a BBC News reference which is widely considered as a reliable source, as well as Financial Times links. (non-admin closure) SwisterTwister   talk  03:24, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

This person lacks notability ; no reliable sources ; the content of the article is obscure...

This stub is an orphan : no equivalent on the French WP whereas he is supposed to be an alumnus of Centrale Paris and INSEAD, no equivalent on the Moroccan WP, nor on the Austrian WP....

A dubious stub... Euroflux (talk) 16:48, 18 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep For the context on why this is even up for deletion, see Categories for discussion/Log/2012 October 9. Suffice it to say that if a trader is so well-known in London that the Financial Times publishes an article about that trader changing jobs (twice, see not cited in the article), then the trader is pretty clearly notable. There's also coverage from BBC, the WSJ, City A.M. , Reuters , and so on. Pichpich (talk) 20:55, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep Pointy and disruptive nomination, as explained by Pichpich. What happens on other WPs is irrelevant here. Is there even something like a Moroccan WP? --Guillaume2303 (talk) 21:17, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep Contrary to the claim by the nominator, there are reliable sources and the content is not "obscure" (not sure what that really means - the subject?). "Stub" is not a valid AfD argument, neither are the article requirements at other wiki sites. First Light (talk) 22:57, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep per WP:POINT. Nomination is in reflex to his own articles for creation not being accepted as they do not meet WP:GNG. User is being consistently disruptive on the English wiki since he has been banned from the French wiki. (When an account has been banned from one wiki, why not them all?) --Bob247 (talk) 23:55, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep and move to close - obviously pointy nomination by a editor upset about an AFD elsewhere who has now done this twice. Stalwart 111  (talk) 02:46, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
