I don't think anybody would consider this unremarkable businessman sufficiently notable were it not for the fact that he is involved with a kick-the-ball outfit. This is not enough. TheLongTone (talk) 15:12, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep Clearly notable person, [1], [2], [3], [4]. Loads online for him, take it you did no homework on him. Govvy (talk) 12:54, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed@Govvy, there are plenty of other Wikipedia articles for other football club owners which have the same or less information than this one. Examples being: Steve Lansdown of Bristol City, Ruben Gnanalingam of Queens Park Rangers, Dejphon Chansiri of Sheffield Wednesday, Kyril Louis-Dreyfus of Sundeland, Gino Pozzo of Watford. Are we suggesting that all of these people should also have their articles deleted?

Not only this, but surely being the owner of a large sporting organisation is a notable enough feat to deserve their own article?

Further to this he is a successful business man running a large construction company with some very notable projects within the United Kingdom, I also believe Clowes Developments should also have their own page very soon.

@TheLongTone David Clowes is clearly deserving of their own article based on other pages dedicated to other sporting owners with similar accomplishments. If you delete this page you are going against precedence set for other pages. Benwilliams1196 (talk) 15:18, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
