Notable?

How notable is this person, really? Is there anything that makes him notable - as being related to a famous person doesn't do it? Please see WP:BIO before replying... Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 16:42, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

I would agree with you that being related to a famous person wouldn't do it. But being big wig for some big companies? That might do it. -- Ben (talk) 06:24, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
He is the Director of the second-largest NBC affiliate owner and the largest ABC affiliate group. He is the member of a family who has their own wikipedia category. [[Category:Hearst family]] How much more notable would he have to be? Jerry lavoie 23:13, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
It's up for afd now in any case. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 10:08, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Here's why (copied from User talk:W.marsh):

George Randolph Hearst III

Hello! In your closing of the AfD on George Randolph Hearst III, you confused me. In closing the debate, you state the result was "keep". When you a few seconds later edit the talk page, you state the result was "no consensus". What's up with that? (I'd rather see it as "no consensus" as then I have some basis for re-nominating it in a few months or so - but if it's a keep I don't think I'll bother.)

I see now that Ben had a similar concern. Sorry for the double-post, then. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 22:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Hmmm I dunno, I intended to close it as a keep. What's on the AfD is more important than what's on the talk page, which is unofficial, I just made a mistake apparently. I'll admit this one really could have gone either way, from a pure numerical standpoint at least it could have been either. But I did intend it as a keep. At any rate, it really shouldn't matter that much with a future AfD whether it was a no consensus or a keep. --W.marsh 22:43, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
