Jonathan Hay Publicity

The mass of references does not address the fact that -- from what I can see -- one cannot find any independent reliable sources (as opposed to press releases from JHP) establishing notability for this company. The Gnews search reveals a single image credit to Hay from Perez Hilton: that's nowhere near sufficient. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 03:29, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - The article looks like an ad for the company. And at best should be a minor footnote to some of the people mentioned within the article.  Jrcrin001 (talk) 06:18, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

This article shouldn't be deleted at all as I know this subject personally. For some reason, someone created a really bad wikipedia page (and pooly sourced article) that I am working on now and editing now. I don't think this should be a "nomination for deletion" article but a "work in progress" article. Clearly this subject is relevant and has many major press links and sources (and many more coming that I'm working on). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Causeandedit (talk • contribs) 05:44, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
 * The above editor has gone ahead and created the bio article Jonathan Hay (publicist). Those gossip sites do look like they may be reliable sources and this person may be notable. At any rate I think this company article can be speedily deleted as an unnecessary duplicate (though I see the speedy tag cannot be applied here as this is not the "rcently created" duplicate.Shawn in Montreal (talk) 13:16, 12 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - the article in its current form is not about Jonathan Hay Publicity, but about Jonathan Hay. While he is presumably the founder and primary of the organization, nonetheless, notability is not WP:INHERITed. While this could be simply renamed, the quality of the article - it's clear WP:PROMO, and the sources are not significant enough to convey WP:NOTABILITY - makes working to maintain it unworthwhile. --Nat Gertler (talk) 05:52, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
