Tom D’Agostino

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Press coverage of D'Agostino appears chiefly related to his brief (less than 1 year) marriage to FFBF LuAnn de Lesseps. His company (SmartSource, LLC) does not appear to be notable. (Note, the SmartSource Wikipedia article redirects to News America Marketing based on their acquisition of a company with the same name, but this acquired company does not appear to be the same company that D'Agostino leads.)

Do not Delete- It is true that D'Agostino appears chiefly related to his brief (less than 1 year) marriage to FFBF LuAnn de Lesseps. However, the Smartsource Wikipedia article is not related with SmartSource LLC in any way, nor there is any indication or citation in the article that proves otherwise. Furthermore, the News America Link mentioned in your post is again not relevant to Smartsource LLC. Nowhere in D'Agostino's wikipedia article, there is any indication or citation of Smartsource LLC acquiring News America Marketing.

Here is the part that is in debate. Please note that all links are not related with Smartsource or News America. Please note that SMARTSOURCE and Smartsource LLC are different companies. I am attaching the part in conflict below for your conveneince.

In 2015, they acquired Data Associates, a 47 year old family owned business that provided Marketing Communication services, adding a $7.5 Million revenue stream to SmartSource LLC, increasing the total revenue to $65 Million. The same year, SmartSource LLC acquired Benchmark Graphics Ltd, a commercial printing company in New York with over 50 years of experience.In 2016, they acquired the assets of Data Supplies Inc, a marketing communications services, which was founded 50 years ago. In 2017, SmartSource was named in the prestigious Top 50 Distributors of 2017 print and promotional products in USA.

 * Delete - people who run "distribution" companies are dime a dozen until they own at least four yachts. Husbands do not inherit notability from their wives unless they get an HRH in front of their names. Bearian (talk) 13:52, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Do not delete-- The Luann de Lesseps page mentions Tom in her info box - and right now that's a dead link. Another thing that I would like to point out that RHONY (Real Housewives of New York) is the #1 show on Bravo, and Tom is a well-known player on the show that people Google constantly. He's absolutely noteable, and known. Please also advise a course of action. Thanks - Saad Ahmed

 * Delete I agree with USER:Bearian. This seems more like a way to try and get him more notable. That is not what Wikipedia is for. VViking Talk Edits 17:05, 21 August 2018 (UTC)
