Notability

Tagged the page since Bloomberg is the only ref with any mention of Redford. Separately, Bloomberg here is a profile and not RS. Search didn't turn up any news articles on Redford. Jppcap (talk) 22:28, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Following up on prev. edit.. the relationship I'm seeing with Redford on cut sentences pertains to company and synthesis. Jppcap (talk) 22:33, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
Based on version post AfD: 3/7 new references added during AfD have subject's name in the title. One is a link to a court case (WP:Unreliable). 5/7 others appear to be subscription-based press releases (not independent of the subject). I'm removing the Businessweek company profile (previously removed) that is not reliable, as noted above. Alliance News is the only semi-reliable source (it does not contain subject's name in the title). Subject name is included in one sentence that says he was appointed non-executive director.
The useful sources that could meet GNG here are #6 and #8, which are using WP:OR to include subject.
0/12 sources discuss the subject in detail to indicate significant coverage. Will address when I have more time. Jppcap (talk) 01:34, 10 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
This isn't true. Please try to respect the result of the AFD without resorting to trying to gradually degrade the article by removing sources. I added back the Bloomberg Businessweek reference as although now dead, it was the source of the information in the article. Philafrenzy (talk) 05:42, 10 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
