Notoriety?[edit]

Why does this individual merit a Wikipedia article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8801:C200:9F70:3402:75E5:26DA:8C3F (talk) 00:36, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cantrell has been the CEO of several companies. I would expect to find an article on him. I think calling him a co-founder of SpaceX is a bit of a stretch, which is why I was coming here... ++Lar: t/c 19:01, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hagiographic[edit]

This article reads a bit like a puff piece. It doesn't, for example, even mention that Cantrell exited being CEO of Vector which subsequently went bankrupt. https://spacenews.com/vector-replaces-ceo-amid-reports-of-financial-problems/ https://spacenews.com/vector-files-for-chapter-11-bankruptcy/ ++Lar: t/c 19:01, 16 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
