Eric Benhamou (Pricing Partners)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Fails WP:BIO. As far as I can tell this person has not been the subject of multiple articles in reliable sources, as required for inclusion. It's difficult to find anything about this Eric Benhamou, but even searches for ""Eric Benhamou" -3com -palm" turn up nothing. SmartSE (talk) 20:41, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete : while I have seen some (limited) coverage of Pricing Partners (deleted since), which might then have met GNG, I have not seen anything reasonably conclusive about this Eric Benhamou. Premature article at best. --Azurfrog (talk) 08:04, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
 * A new version of Pricing Partners has been created to avoid the salting - Pricing Partners SAS - it's currently at AFD. SmartSE (talk) 11:06, 30 May 2012 (UTC)


 * OK understood your point. Eric Benhamou (Pricing Partners) page can be deleted then... Anyway, at the end of the day, Smartse, you are the administrator and I am just a poor contributor. --Paul.cabot (talk) 15:12, 30 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep Hi all, I made a research on Bloomberg and found two Eric Benhamou, the former CEO of Palm and the CEO of Pricing Partners. So this article should stay. --Yuxinmao (talk) 10:45, 1 June 2012 (UTC) — Yuxinmao (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Keep : I found interesting to know the life of people that have created their company. So according to me, we should keep it. --Paul.cabot (talk) 13:37, 2 June 2012 (UTC) — Paul.cabot (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Didn't you say it should be deleted before? SmartSE (talk) 17:16, 2 June 2012 (UTC)


 * What I said Smartse is that if you want to delete it, I will not be able to say no as you are the administrator and I am just a poor user and I will say OK, this is life. But if you ask whether I want to keep it or not, I say yes keep it without hesitation as I found the subject interesting. This is it! --Paul.cabot (talk) 14:02, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Whilst I am an administrator that doesn't give me carte blanche to do as I like. First, articles are kept or deleted on the strength of arguments related to our policies and guidelines. Your argument of "it is interesting" isn't very strong compared to mine and Azurfrog's that there are not enough sources. Second, the decision to delete or keep the article will be taken by another admin, not by me. SmartSE (talk) 16:23, 4 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Sorry smartse, I was not clear about my argument: it is interesting so I take the point that this is not very strong formulated like it is. What is interesting is how someone who has a common background decides to create a company. It is interesting to know the origin of the person and what he has done before. This is relevant and gives a better understanding of the path followed. This is what I found interesting. --Paul.cabot (talk) 08:54, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete As mentioned by others, even less notable than the firm. Clearly a promotional creation, intended to double the number of articles.  DGG ( talk ) 17:47, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Just part of a persistent spam campaign, see Articles for deletion/Pricing Partners SAS. --MelanieN (talk) 19:26, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
