Harvey Hernandez

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Businessman of insufficient personal notability. Sources consist of a puff interview, register entries, and incidental mentions. His companies might rate more attention (didn't check on that) but he personally seems to fail WP:NBIO. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 11:57, 28 May 2018 (UTC) Elmidae (talk · contribs) 11:57, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep: search of subject results in numerous RS, easily passes WP:BASIC. BelBivDov (talk) 21:01, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Can you demonstrate please? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 09:12, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Using the above tools to search for Harvey in Google News yields many RS featuring him in an 'expert' capacity. Examples include several articles in The Real Deal, an interesting piece from Curbed, and a few passing mentions in Forbes articles, among others. All combined, I think this is a case of WP:HASPOT, in which case the proper course would be tag, not delete. BelBivDov (talk) 19:56, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think you are misunderstanding WP:HASPOT. It does not mean that "there are potentially sources out there", it means that "it is possible to write an in-depth article using sources shown to exist". Soundbites, quotes and passing mentions (and I don't know what's there supposed to be in the first link at all...?) do not constitute such sources. Where's the substantial secondary coverage of the man himself? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 05:39, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, my first link didn’t quite come through. I intended to share The Real Deal tag for Harvey, which contains numerous articles written about him and his RE activity du jour. I’m reminded of the fragment from WP:Basic, “If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability...“ and wonder if it’s applicable here. Would be interested in other editors’ thoughts. BelBivDov (talk) 16:06, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Quoted and interviewed by Forbes, Sun Sentinel and The Real Deal multiple times. Meets Notability Guildelines. ShoesssS ^Talk 15:11, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. WP:N requires sources that "address the topic directly and in detail". Passing mentions and quotes don't count. – Joe (talk) 11:52, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
