Jay Sidhu

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This is a pure press release: referring to him by his first name, relying on sources like Businesswire, a publication whose only purpose it to publish press releases, sources from his own firm, and promotional  interviews. As one would expect, it was started by an obvious coi editor, and apparently much revised by others.

He might or might not be notable, but the article would have to be started over. The guideline here is TNT.  DGG ( talk ) 06:19, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep. I recognize that this article started out biased, but I think that I and other editors have cleaned it up a lot from the way the article arrived in 2008. I changed the first-name references to surnames. The stuff attributed to press releases is uncontroversial, and I think there are enough good references from reliable sources to establish notability.

 * Somewhta oover half the contents of the articles is still spam. When such drastic fixing is needed, the correct course is TNT.  DGG ( talk ) 18:51, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Even after improvement, this is still more puffery or a prose CV, not an article. Looking through the sources, there is very little that rises above the level of WP:MILL for a banking executive, if any. Eggishorn  (talk) (contrib) 18:40, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
