James Max
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article pertains to a contestant from the first series of The Apprentice (UK). The relevant information in this article is already included at List of The Apprentice candidates (UK), and this individual has insufficient notability to warrant their own article.

 * I see now that the first AfD went for delete. I can't say however, that this is a G4 speedy, since I don't know if the material is substantially similar Fritzpoll (talk) 12:49, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I've just checked and the current version is substantially different to the version that was AfD'ed ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:22, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much for the check. Fritzpoll (talk) 10:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to List of The Apprentice candidates (UK). Sea serpent 85 14:11, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Max has established an increasing notability over and above his initial appearance in The Apprentice. His radio and TV regular appearances are more numerous than many other celebrities who have their own entries. Article may need a clean up and additional references but does not warrant a delete 21stCenturyGreenstuff (talk) 12:53, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - Has established notability as a presenter outside of the Apprentice. There's far too much topic-specific content here to merge into any other article. --Oakshade (talk) 17:10, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I posted this article as I listen to Max not only on LBC but TalkSPORT too. Many people would know him from his new roles rather than appearing in The Apprentice. Whilst it's appropriate for him to be cited in The Apprentice his body of work since then is of note. Anyone who has 3 of their own weekly radio shows and appears on Sky News and on Cable TV nearly every day deserves their own page? It would appear that deletion is requested because of a dislike of their style rather than because they do not warrant their own entry?! Butlermonkey 22:51 28th April 2008 (UTC)
