Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because the subject, Ryan Cohen, is a notable entrepreneur who founded and served as CEO of the company Chewy, which was acquired by PetSmart for more than $3 billion in 2017, the largest ever acquisition of an e-commerce company. Cohen has been profiled in The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Miami Herald, Inc. and elsewhere. The Wikipedia page is written in a neutral tone, it is concise, and it does not seem to pass Criteria for speedy deletion.--Bernie44 (talk) 00:21, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
However, he didn't have a passion for jewelry. An avid pet owner, Cohen saw an untapped online market potential in pet products.
is so far from an encyclopedic tone that it falls under WP:G11 from my point of view. I agree that WP:A7 (obviously non-notable people) is not met. We'll see what the admins think. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:23, 25 May 2018 (UTC)- Fair enough. Removed that bit. I do not think the page could be considered to be purely promotional at this point.--Bernie44 (talk) 00:28, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
