Mike Salvino
AfDs for this article:


 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails WP:GNG. This is a WP:ROTM businessman doing his job, profiled by a declared WP:PAID editor. WP:BOMBARD with references to PR and press releases and primary sources. WP:NOTLINKEDIN. I note the outcome of the prior AfD, and suggest salting. Fiddle Timtrent Faddle Talk to me 10:51, 8 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Basic career profile, source-bombed with barely relevant PR. Since it has been pointed out that DXC is Fortune 500, Keep per WP:NBUSINESSPERSON. But much of the coverage here relates to previous non-notable roles so I would prefer a merge of relevant information to DXC. LizardJr8 (talk) 19:26, 8 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep. I am the article creator; COI declared here. As the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, Salvino already meets WP:NBUSINESSPERSON. DXC Technology was failing and Salvino was brought in to turn it around. Here is a sample of some significant coverage:

 * The nominator WP:TAGBOMBed the article with five undiscussed tags three minutes prior to opening this AFD, in an apparent attempt to influence the outcome. Please also note that the only "Delete" vote in the prior AFD was inaccurate: it cited Google "newspapers", which has long been almost useless in searches – Elon Musk gets one only one result (a humor piece in Pittsburgh ), and Jeff Bezos gets only four results, all prior to 2008 ; the proper search for news items is Google "news" .

 * Keep. In looking through the sources, it’s a mixed bag of promotional articles, names drops, and a few quality references. However, those few do add up to enough coverage to meet WP:SIGCOV. Further, DXC Technology is ranked 152 on the Fortune 500, so I agree with the above rationale that the subject meets WP:NBUSINESSPERSON as the CEO of a major company. It’s difficult to understand how the nominator could rationally and reasonably claim that the CEO of a Fortune 500 company with over 50,000 employees is a run of the mill businessman. While I too despise paid editing as a practice, it shouldn’t impact how we weigh and evaluate notability. 4meter4 (talk) 04:42, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per the sources highlighted above.DocFreeman24 (talk) 23:01, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
