This article lacks notability. As per WP: Person, Haub is not notable for anything other than this disappearance. As neither the man nor his disappearance is particularly high profile, this article fails notability standards, and should be deleted. FirefoxLSD ( talk) 18:24, 19 April 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Snow keep Unbelievable. Billionaire (176th richest person in the world), CEO and owner of a multi-billion dollar company with 70,000+ employees. And the nominator claims that he is only notable for his disappearance? Makes you wonder whether FirefoxLSD lacks basic competence, or whether this is just plain vandalism. 2A02:A451:8B2D:1:7CCC:1C3C:F7F3:C222 ( talk) 09:11, 21 April 2018 (UTC) reply

Thank you - a decade on Wiki in native country, great find. WP:N. Simone2049 ( talk) 08:23, 22 April 2018 (UTC) reply
An existing Wikipedia article in another language does not mean that the subject meets WP:N. Different language versions have different criteria. -- bonadea contributions talk 15:32, 22 April 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - the question here is one of interpretation of WP:BLP1E. It is not at all a simple matter one way or another. Belonging to a rich family or being the head of a major company does not mean a person is inherently notable (see WP:NOTINHERITED), and currently, a GF WP:BEFORE search yields only articles about his disappearance, which would make it look as if it is a case of BLP1E. However, I do not agree that it is a low-profile individual or disappearance (one of the BLP1E criteria) given that I find news articles about him not only in German and English, but also Swedish, Greek, French, and Polish (and that's just the first few pages of Ghits). The German-language Wikipedia article has one or maybe two sources that might serve to show notability at en.wiki as well. -- bonadea contributions talk 15:32, 22 April 2018 (UTC) reply
