Gerard Adams

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable entrepreneur; affiliated with one notable company, but that's insufficient for notability. Significant RS coverage not found; what comes up is passing mentions and / or self-promotion. Not notable as a media contributor either. Proposing to convert to a protected redirect to Gerry Adams. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:28, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete article as non-notable; Wikipedia is not a newspaper and per nom, redirect name to Gerard Adams, who was the Leader of the Sinn Féin political party (IRA). Kierzek (talk) 14:48, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep There are ample sources in the article -- including Huffington Post or NJ.com -- that are the in-depth coverage in reliable and verifiable sources that met the notability standard. Simple assertions that someone is "non-notable" that do not address the existence of robust sources should be given little to no weight. Alansohn (talk) 15:08, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Not notable. He's only known to associate with one not that well known company and that's not enough. Acnetj (talk) 05:01, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
