 * Delete Looking over the article I'm not seeing a good case for notability either.--Rtphokie (talk) 12:42, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep Seems notable as a businessman as former CEO of Anchor Foods and current connection to Relevant Radio but in-depth sources are so far difficult to find online. Note: Also searching on "Mark C. Follet" (as per his bio) yields another few dozen ghits. - Dravecky (talk) 16:54, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Is Anchor Foods notable enough as a corporation? If not, I don't see why its former CEO would be. — Wackymacs ( talk  ~  edits ) 18:00, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * It certainly seems so on it's face. Before the company was purchased and split in 2001, it had "sales of $503m (Euro551m) in 2000" and there is substantial coverage in Google News (although some of those are about unrelated UK or AU companies with the same name). Yes, the company is now split up but notability is not temporary.  That nobody has written an article on it yet does not obviate its impact or notability in the real world.  - Dravecky (talk) 01:25, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. His company may be notable that that doesn't imply Mark Follet is. The only source that talks about him in any depth at all is of dubious reliability / significance.  There are about 2 dozen Ghits for Mark Follet but only 1 that also includes "Anchor":  which implies to me we've seen all we're going to.  In any case, we shouldn't be cutting so close to the line on WP:BLP cases.  Mango juice talk 18:08, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
