About a person only notable for being CEO of a non-notable company. A quick WP:BEFORE search reveals no reliable sources. Only was worth about USD $10 million. Eddie891 Talk Work 00:41, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think the individual is notable not for being a CEO necessarily, but for being the CEO of the first African corporation to export coffee. That is why I created the page and believe that the individual is notable. I will accept your decision to delete or not either way. Thank you.

Linkjan2014: the decision to delete is a community consensus, not my choice. Perhaps the corporation will become notable before the CEO. Whatever happens, I hope you continue to contribute to Wikipedia! Eddie891 Talk Work 01:30, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Subject lacks references. A Google search for the exact name returns 82 results - WP:NOTABLE. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pilot333 (talkcontribs) 02:51, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I can't remember exactly where, but I have seen his company on multiple nominations for Somali notable companies and if i'm not mistaken even an award ceremony. His name is a bit hazy to me but his company is definitely not. However, since the media of Somalia has been largely destroyed in the civil war, i think Somalia related articles should receive more leeway than for example companies within the Anglosphere. Either his company, or this article should remain. I don't mind a merge, but since the company doesn't have an article, at least it could be covered on this page. In a nutshell, there is no doubt to me that the man is notable.; and nominators who are clueless in regards to Somali society should imo acknowledge that. 92.9.152.17 (talk) 21:02, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
