Notability

[edit]

Hey Nicnote, I cited a bunch of reliable sources that are providing significant coverage, like CNN, Forbes and there also a big article in WIRED. The man sure has notability in serval topics. Can you please guide me what to do so I can have the template removed? Sokuya (talk) 21:35, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Sokuya: Hi! Taking a second look, that satisfies some parts of WP:GNG for me, although it is borderline. The main problem is the lack of newspaper clippings (by that I mean real, physical highly-circulated newspapers like the WSJ, NYT, The Telegraph, etc.) The links from the big news companies are mostly either from newspaper website blogs (not the same as articles) or have a 'passing mention' of Bill. This means that some people may decide that WP:GNG is not satisfied here. I will sleep on this and if anything I will start a discussion at WP:AfD. You can't do anything, either a person is encyclopaedic or they're not! Best, Nicnote • ask me a question • contributions 21:49, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
