Does not meet WP:GNG or WP:BIO. So many issues - that it is an article on a person without clear refs on someone who died quite recently and the tone are just two, that it should probably be WP:TNTed either way. Boleyn ( talk) 08:54, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete No indication of any notability for AG. This is just a list of the companies he worked for over the years and that could be said for millions of people. MarnetteD| Talk 09:21, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Per nom. Fifthavenuebrands ( talk) 09:27, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - Partly per nom... Neither recency of death, tone, nor lack of refs in the article are valid reasons to delete, and WP:TNT absolutely does not apply. However, my own search has turned up 0 reliable sources, and there is no meaningful claim to notability so the outcome is the same either way. Hug syrup 10:21, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Ran across this article by accident, and couldn't figure out why it was notable -- and I'm on the inclusionist spectrum. Smallchief ( talk) 13:32, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete not seeing any notability for the individual, either actual nor claims within the article.-- ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 21:37, 17 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete no sign of notability. He was a chemist and business executive of some kind. The role in making one specific type of duracell battery is not quite major. I do have to wonder how "died recently" and a death 13 years ago work together. That does not quite fit my definition of "recent". John Pack Lambert ( talk) 01:49, 19 November 2019 (UTC)
