Paul Ashley Chase
No evidence of notability; the only source is an obituary in his company newsletter. Notability requires independent sources, and/or multiple reliable sources with significant coverage of the subject. This is just an article written by a family member, for vanity essentially.

 * Delete Just an employee and auditor, a noble prefession, but no one special. Emeraude (talk) 21:42, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep One of the founders of the largest entertainment companies in the world should be intrinsically part of the historical record. The source material is good enough for me since I found it in about 1 minute when looking through WB archives. People that want to remove this article are doing it due to their own vanity because they have not been successful with previous attempts to do so.Joegillus (talk) 07:05, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Xymmax (talk) 17:36, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep One of the founders of Warner Borthers? There is certain to be more material. keep and expand. DGG (talk) 18:15, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Per above. Don't understand why it was put up for deletion, but it undeniably must be expanded. Redmarkviolinist Drop me a line 18:23, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It's because there's nothing published about him, as far as I or anyone else has been able to find. Dicklyon (talk) 18:45, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Weakest of weakest of keeps. I hadn't seen that this was nominated again. Last September it was kept. I'm not persuaded that he merits the description "one of the founders of Warner Brothers". There certainly are not any sources available online to credibly expand the article other than his NYT obit. (the sole result on GNews Archive) --Dhartung | Talk 19:22, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
