Fails NBUSINESSPERSON and NAUTHOR. The first, eleventh, and eighteenth sources are from beststartup.co.uk, a for-profit WP:SPONSORED website, which is certainly unreliable. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 11:23, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors, Businesspeople,  and United Kingdom. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 11:23, 26 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Comment This was deleted following WP:Articles for deletion/Rune Sovndahl (entrepreneur), along with a speedy and two prods. Its current incarnation was started at Rune Hoy Sovndahl, in what looks like a second attempt at flying under the radar of watchlists. See also Articles for deletion/Fantastic Services (2nd nomination). The creator of both articles has been indefinitely blocked for undisclosed paid editing, and this one is similarly promotional.
 * That said, I'm on the fence about notability at the moment, as it's got substantial profiles from the BBC and Money Week. The Financial Times and Guardian sources are also substantial, but both are interviews so not secondary sources. Uncle Spock (talk) 11:48, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Looks like the subject inherits notability from his company Fantastic Services. Much of the sources focus on his company and not the man himself. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 12:22, 26 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete Blatant promotion of a non-notable businessman. May need salting. QuicoleJR (talk) 13:24, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt: Fails GNG, repeatedly deleted and recreated, main editor (MediaWatch) blocked for WP:UPE. Flip Format (talk) 13:34, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt, not notable and keeps coming back. Oaktree b (talk) 14:41, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete + Salt - Completely fails GNG, and yet repeatedly recreated. Also seems to have a veiled promotional angle towards his company as well. --TheInsatiableOne (talk) 08:20, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
