None of the few sources show any signs of notability. He may be a young and up-coming CEO but nothing shows that he is notable in Wikipedia terms yet. May be just too soon. Fails WP:BIO  Velella  ^{Velella Talk}   14:27, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy delete. No indications of notability. Started a few non-notable companies. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 14:34, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Not only not notable, created by a WP:SPA. Note that there is also an article for his company, Cinevid which is up for Speedy Deletion. LaMona (talk) 15:06, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"A topic is presumed to merit an article if all of the following are true: - It meets either the general notability guideline below or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline listed in the box on the right. - It is not excluded under the What Wikipedia is not policy." It is our belief that the latter option is met. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Techspace41 (talk • contribs) 14:50, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment @Techspace41: You have misunderstood the criterion, which states "A topic is presumed to merit inclusion if all of the following are met" (emphasis added). Meeting any single criterion (i.e. in your case, not excluded under the What Wikipedia is not policy) is not sufficient. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 16:26, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - If cinevid gains more popularity, the article can be recreated, but as of now, I don't see the notability. Cpuser20 (talk) 15:28, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - fails WP:GNG - The subject lacks significant coverage in secondary sources. The article gives only a single secondary source, google search was unsuccesfull. -- Taketa (talk) 18:24, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
