[edit]

John Rich is reasonably well-known for his High Court Case suing ASIC (eg https://www.judgments.fedcourt.gov.au/judgments/Judgments/hca/2004/2004hca0042) , as well as (yes, as you state, on a smaller scale) a South Australian local councillor/mayor.

Please inform me how to improve the article as if the above is not sufficient. SpaceFox99 (talk) 13:41, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Are there some good independent sources about the case, giving some attention to John Rich? The source you give shows that the case is real (which is not in doubt), but not that it gives any notability to Rich. Fram (talk) 14:13, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps even more importantly, is there some good source showing that the John David Rich of Walkerville is the same as John David "Jodee" Rich, the One.Tel director in the ASIC case? The name alone is not sufficient, we need a reliable source establishing the link. Fram (talk) 14:18, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If they are the same, then this should be a redirect to Jodee Rich. Fram (talk) 14:19, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Their purported photographs and biographies are entirely different, so it very much looks like they are not, and the court case was misattributed to this John Rich (the court case was clearly about the businessman, not about the local politician.) Deleting that sentence from the article. Fut.Perf. 14:34, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Fram:, @SpaceFox99:, @Future Perfect at Sunrise:, please could I direct you to Rosemary Craddock. Thoughts on notability? Thanks, Willbb234Talk (please {{ping}} me in replies) 19:05, 1 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
