Jim Wiggins (philanthropist)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Subject appears to fail WP:N and WP:BIO. Article has only a single primary source. A quick Google did not turn up anything that looked notable but part of the problem is the subject has a common name. Article was previously marked PROD with tag subsequently removed. Single award cited does not appear to be notable. Am I missing something here? Ad Orientem (talk) 04:52, 19 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete. Trying to find sources for this guy is giving me "FITSI" - nothing much but press releases as far as I can see. Also, what exactly has this "philanthropist" done to warrant that title? Clarityfiend (talk) 16:18, 19 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete - This is not a philanthropist, for starters. Fails GNG. Looks like a poor effort at a paid job to me: pretty color picture, lame sourcing. Learn to say no. Carrite (talk) 20:31, 19 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete The cited award is not in itself notable in terms of WP:ANYBIO and I am finding nothing substantial on this person. AllyD (talk) 15:17, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
