The result of the debate was no real consensus, but it certainly doesn't want to be kept. So, I was bold and deleted it, then made it a redirect to Firmenich.  Rob e  rt  T 02:54, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Patrick Firmenich
vandalism nn bio BeteNoir 02:47, 8 November 2005 (UTC) clearly, the article as written (NOT necessarily by the subject) is highly UE in form, but it is not an SD candidate, imo--FRS 03:08, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * SpeedyDelete as per nom. BeteNoir 02:47, 8 November 2005 (UTC).  OK, that's unexpected.  Then complete rewrite and keep.  BeteNoir 03:17, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete per nom and per betenoir.--->Newyorktimescrossword 03:04, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * BeteNoir is the nominator. :) Keryst 03:32, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment this is a real and arguably notable person http://www.firmenich.com/portal/page?_pageid=655,143625&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&htmlname=CorpCompProfNewsItem4.jsp&sid=news&cid=CP
 * Weak keep and rewrite (I'll rewrite shortly most likely). Article does assert notability so is not a nn bio.  Article says (correctly, I think) that he is CEO of Firmenich SA a 100+ year old company with 4,500 employees.  --W.marsh 03:10, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Rewritten to stub. It's nothing spectacular but I'll go out on a limb and claim it's an improvement.  --W.marsh 03:15, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * redirect is a better idea --W.marsh 01:18, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable enough. —Cleared as filed. 03:55, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Firmenich until such time that there is enough verifiable information to flesh out his article. Capitalistroadster 04:30, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * redirect and expand the bio doesn't qualify for nn. Nor does it qualify for WP:BIO but that seems to be lacking any statement on businessmen. Patrick, only CEO for 3 years, is not so significant, but mention of Firmenich family (who have been running the cumpany for generations) should be made on the Firmenich page. jnothman talk 04:53, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect per above. Information should be placed on an entry for the corporation. Dottore So 10:21, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Capitalistroadster - and off to research if that meets WP:CORP or it's coming here too... Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 14:30, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Firmenich. HGB 01:14, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable--Westernriddell 06:46, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
