Notability

edit

Ofir michael, you may have moved the draft to mainspace before it was ready. It is now subject to rules meant for articles, and not drafts. I don't see the subject satisfying WP:GNG. There are no independent reliable sources added to the article that have significant coverage of the person. I did not go over themarker.com (not English) and bizjournals.com (behind paywall) though. The majority of the content is about his businesses, and not about him. Do you want me to move it back to draftspace until the article is accepted via review, otherwise I don't see a way to keep it?

Jay, IMHO Stern does meat WP:GNG since he was awarded the prestigious Israel Defense Prize, serial entrepreneur who founded several companies, he sold three of those companies for more than a billion dollars.Ofir michael (talk) 09:55, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
GNG is not about what a person has done or achieved, it is about how much coverage is there. However, since you are a veteran user, I don't want this to become a discussion about GNG. You may want to read through WP:GNG again, just in case. Jay (talk) 10:04, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
If it was just one company perhaps. But Stern has founded 6 of them (Rosh Intelligent Systems, CardScan, Zoom Information, Bizo Inc, Opster Ltd and AltNext Ltd) and now running Yonatan Labs Ltd, which makes him a serial entrepreneur. Winning the Israeli defence prize is no easy task. All of these are a proof of notability. There is translation to the TheMarker article here.Ofir michael (talk) 10:27, 30 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the Marker translation, so there are at least 2 sources with significant coverage. Someone who has access to the paywalled bizjournals source can go through that, and maybe remove the GNG required tag from the article. Jay (talk) 06:47, 5 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
