Article was previously submitted for AfC and declined. It was then moved by the author into mainspace. Based on the sources, I see run-off-the-mill coverage, coverage about the company and a bunch of primary sources. Might be worth looking into potential viable Dutch sources, but the current reference pool doesn't look like a pass of WP:GNG. nearlyevil 665 09:41, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I created this article and submitted for AfC, it was correctly declined last week due to a lack of sufficient sources. I added lots of sources to the draft, I then saw that I could now use my account to move the draft to mainspace so I moved it over.

I do believe the subject meets the criteria cited at [[1]], so I vote **oppose/keep**.

On Wikipedia, the general inclusion threshold is whether the subject is notable enough for at least two people to have written something substantive (more than just a mention) about that subject that has been published in a reliable source.

They are the focus of regular mainstream press coverage in the Netherlands and beyond, including: - 2021 in depth interview[[2]] in the major Dutch newspaper Trouw. - 2018 article about the subject on Bloomberg News[[3]]. - 2018 article about the subject on Business Insider [[4]] - 2015 article about the subject in Dutch publication Quote [[5]]

If I add these sources to the article do you think this would be enough to meet GNG?

Many thanks for your time.

I also note that the subject is listed 10th on List_of_Dutch_by_net_worth, and if no article existed would be the only entry without one. I don't know if that is relevant or not to the discussion!

Keep Self-made billionaire and founder and CEO of a notable company, and there is now plenty of in-depth coverage in reliable sources in the article to pass WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 11:47, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Passes the WP:GNG. Absolutely no lack of notability. The reasoning of the novice creator is correct. gidonb (talk) 23:29, 11 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
