Not a notable business executive, despite his successful career. I checked all the cited references and none include the kind of significant coverage of Haraldsvik necessary to demonstrate notability - just quotes, interviews, passing mentions. I searched for more coverage without success. The article creator removed the PROD and said they believe he is notable, but provided no further sources and I am unconvinced by those they highlighted on the talk page.
The article creator denies knowing Haraldsvik, but their editing pattern was to make minor edits to places in Tamil Nadu until autoconfirmed and then create this bio and a disambig page at Haraldsvik, which is consistent with COI and/or UPE. Fences& Windows 23:24, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. As I have said, I don't really agree with the deletion nomination, but thanks for your time and effort in curating Wikipedia. Ronny Haraldsvik is well known in the telecommunication world, with much more than simply passing mentions. Plus there is nothing wrong with helping to improve all the different kinds of mistakes that you see on Wikipedia.
There are several articles and also bios of him with in-depth coverage. Check:

- Delete. Article is in very poor shape with very low citations and the person being described does not seem very notable. Perfecnot ( talk) 03:03, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
