Subject might not have substantial enough independent coverage. It includes self/company published with the rest being award specific, WP:OR or his school. Needs cleanup if article is kept. Swil999 (talk) 19:57, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to D2L if that company is truly notable. I object to the notion that he is even borderline notable as a philanthropist unless independent reliable sources devote significant coverage to him as a philanthropist. Charity board directories are far from enough, since they are not independent. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 07:27, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect - to D2L, since he is mentioned there. There is nothing worth merging into the company article. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 01:16, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
