Does not appear to meet wp:gng as the coverage is not significant. Most sources are primary, and those that are not amount to an obituary in the local section of an admittedly major paper, and a passing comment about school board elections in the same paper. Net result, a couple of reliable sources but a lack of significant coverage. Hugsyrup (talk) 10:28, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep. The Nation's Business article about him sounds significant. I cannot access the article, but I am inclined to accept good faith by the article's creator. While I was  searching for the article, I found a citation to it at  https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/hrm.3930120104 ,(Google indexed the full text, which is behind a paywall ) also suggesting that the coverage is significant. The Washington Post obituary is also much more than a passing mention. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 16:40, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Very weak keep. The Nation's Business story can be found (via some CIA database) at https://archive.org/details/CIA-RDP89-01114R000100020072-5/page/n9 . It covers the subject nontrivially, and I assume (not being able to get through the paywall) that the Wapo obit does as well. But, after reading both our article and the NB story, I'm left at a bit of a loss for what impact he left on the world, except for his name on a high school theatre. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:07, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
