possible A7-bio or copyright infringement but not sure so nominating for AfD just in case. Adding expand tag to monitor any changes Katanada (talk) 18:42, 18 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep " chairman of the Federal Trade Commission" is clearly an assertion of notability so speedy deletion A7 doesn't apply. Some of the text does come from the ftc.gov website, but as a work of the US government, that is not copyrightable.  Subject meets WP:BIO and Wikipedia should have an article on him.

 * Keep Additional sources have been added, and Chairman of the FTC is a notable position IMO.--Cube lurker (talk) 19:48, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. 233 gnews hits just for the past month. The refs in the article could be improved a bit, and the article could be expanded, but these are editing issues, not deletion issues.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  14:34, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. 57 mentions in The New York Times.  That, and I'd think chairman of the FTC would be pretty darn close to inherent notability.   Anturiaethwr  Talk  15:37, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep as an invalid nomination. It would have been impossible for the nominator to go through the correct pre-nomination procedure in the minute between article creation and nomination. Using automatic tools doesn't absolve you of responsibility for thinking about what you are doing. Phil Bridger (talk) 09:22, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
