Unnotable person, despite having founded a notable company (EA DICE), but notability is not inherited. Lordtobi (✉) 17:38, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WP:NOTINHERITED Good nomination. LikeMeercats (talk) 21:55, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Liliegren is the main subject of articles in the dominating Swedish newspapers such as Svenska Dagbladet, Expressen, Göteborgs-Posten (accessible through sv:Mediearkivet) and so on over a period of 20 years, from 1994 and onwards (possibly earlier, but from 1994 is when I find the earliest relevant articles). There are plenty of sources that focus on Liliegren, rather than EA DICE. I've added some to the article, expanding it slightly. /Julle (talk) 23:30, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

(Google News isn't very good at catching Swedish news in general, and of course even worse when they're from the 90s or early 00s.) /Julle (talk) 23:40, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep- I cleaned up the article (but could use more work) and added a source or two. In agreement with Julle that notability is clearly defined by available sources focusing on the subject and not his companies. Passes WP:BIO and meets notability guidelines. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 00:23, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep- per improvements done after nom. Passes WP:GNG.BabbaQ (talk) 10:54, 9 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
