  • keep I appreciate that scope_creep is trying to do his job as he states. The subject matter is notable perhaps not globally but in Ghana. If the article is kept it will be improved. Thank you Ataavi (talk) 09:04, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't pass
WP:ANYBIO and there no coverage whatsoever. scope_creepTalk 16:02, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Comment: The subject matter is notable in Ghana which meets Wikipedia requirements. - Ret.Prof (talk) 13:56, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Exactly how is he notable? Please show me the evidence so we can examine it. scope_creepTalk 14:38, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete: all the coverage is routine. Fails GNG. Rockphed (talk) 16:54, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I just did a Google news search and found that 'all' the coverage is NOT routine. It raises a question as to why people want to delete this artcle?? In any event he is more than a news story, he is a notable individual doing an important job that affects many people.[1]. - Ret.Prof (talk) 14:00, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • So far you've not offered a single piece of evidence proving it. Please provide
    WP:THREE reference that prove he is notable. Three good secondary references should do it. scope_creepTalk 14:06, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply

No not really. You haven't offered a single piece of evidence so far, to validate your claims, merely a bunch of comments and a remarkably unsuitable reference. scope_creepTalk 17:22, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Do you really believe we have consensus??? Do you really believe the article is not notable?? Do you really believe there has not been "a single piece of evidence" presented in this case? - Ret.Prof (talk) 13:37, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Would it not be fairer to say that you have not accepted any of the evidence putforward so far??? In any event I will step back. I think this a good article, that it is notable and should not be deleted from Wikipedia. - Ret.Prof (talk) 15:11, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I want the article deleted, hence the reason for the Afd. I don't vote in an Afd, if I think there is any chance whatsoever of it being notable. Usually if the person is notable, and good evidence is posted to prove it per
WP:V , I'll withdraw the Afd. I did that very thing a few days with a muscician Ed Case and always do it, if evidence is posted. The standard approach in Afd is to present the evidence, which you haven't done and which in itself is a good indication that the guy is not notable. scope_creepTalk 15:14, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply

Now you have me really confused me! On Sept 23 you stated "I don't have any doubts the guy is notable"  ??? In any event I will leave the descision to an admin. Cheers - Ret.Prof (talk) 15:27, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about that. I think he is notable, but there must be proof per
WP:V. It is not there. scope_creepTalk 16:05, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply
