non-notable person who created an article about themselves. 1keyhole (talk) 05:59, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep The article has been expanded since creation, and Gilmanl's current authorship is around 3%, so I'm not too concerned there. Notability is the bigger concern. The coverage in The Christian Science Monitor is significant, reliable (see WP:CSMONITOR), secondary, and independent. Finding a second source is harder. Most other sources the article cites are not independent, unless the government [1] counts as independent. A Vox article [2] I found may have significant enough coverage, or it may not. More than one sentence addresses Louie directly. Regardless, being on the Foreign Affairs Policy Board might mean WP:NPOL applies. I'm at a weak keep for now.

weak keep: This is from an old magazine [3], with the Christian Science Monitor, should have enough. Oaktree b (talk) 16:33, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Well I just saw a page about this guy in a Time magazine from 1989 (San Francisco October 17). It was in an ad by Commodore for the Amiga machine. Curious how this possibly influences this discussion. (I have pictures but am not sure of the recommended way to add them here. I don't have so much experience with this. Anyone curious to see them could give me pointers.) Tamedu quaternion (talk) 05:29, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
