Promotional article. Does not meet WP:SIGCOV. Sawada Katsuo (talk) 06:57, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment. The nominator's contributions consist almost entirely of AfD nominations. I would remind the nominator that a promotional tone, if it exists, can be removed by editing (WP:SOFIXIT) and that WP:BEFORE is a requirement before an article can properly be nominated for deletion.

 * Nominator has been blocked for spamming. I am not closing this nomination so that it can be evaluated on its merits (or lack thereof) - just because they are a spammer doesn't mean they're wrong. MER-C 17:14, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Concur that the promotional tone needs to go but there does exist independent coverage in Wall Street Journal Entrepreneur Magazine NY Times Forbes maclean (talk) 03:35, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Agree with all above, the tone and sourcing need work. In addition to Maclean25's sources above, here are several more from the Atlanta newspapers covering his various moves: Oct 2000 Oct 2000 continued, Oct 2003 Oct 2003 continued, and Oct 2007 and Oct 2007 continued. No, I do not know why the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has a habit of writing articles about him in October. --Krelnik (talk) 15:45, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
