NN business person, everything is mill "coverage" if it can even be called that and is largely PR/primary. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 04:29, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and clean up. A quick search brings up this NY Times article in which Duperreault is the primary subject. CEO of one of the biggest companies in the world, seems notable enough to me. Agree that advert tag is def warranted though. --Ha-joon S (talk) 14:25, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's largely an interview...CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 15:08, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So? Wikipedia:Interviews says interviews can demonstrate notability. The potential problem with interviews is the reliability of individual statements, not the value of the source toward GNG. —swpb^{T go beyond} 16:01, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep CEO of a very large company like AIG is notable. Here's a better source [1]. However, a paid editor contributed heavily to this article so it needs cleanup.--Rusf10 (talk) 02:11, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sure being the CEO of AIG makes him exempt from A7 but I've yet to find one source that features independent coverage of him. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 02:16, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep per WP:BASIC/WP:GNG, but it does need cleanup from a paid editor. --IndyNotes

How so? None of it appears to be coverage. It's largely primary sources and at best MILL. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 21:52, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to existing refs, which I think are sufficient, there are also:

Keep Notable, but needs removal of obvious promotional tone and text. DonFB (talk) 03:32, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
