Non-notable individual lacking Ghits and GNEWS of substance. Fails WP:BIO. ttonyb (talk) 21:15, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - Google hits is not the sole indicator of notability, and entrepreneurship and boldness should not be held against him. It's tough to get started as a writer or community organizer in Nigeria, so that should be considered. What might be trivial to accomplish in a western city is more notable in Nigeria. He seems to be a credible writer. It is helpful when wikipedia has biographies of people like this. Article could use editing, though. Wxidea (talk) 17:02, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment – Nothing you have said indicates a reason to keep. How has this article established notability via Wikipedia guidelines? If hie is such a renown entrepreneur there should be sufficient support for this article; however, that does not appear to be the case. ttonyb (talk) 17:05, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete nothing in gnews, fails WP:BIO. Looks like a promotional resume. LibStar (talk) 17:42, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Unlike the 'Gunvald Strøm-Walseng' AfD, where I disagree with LibStar, and think he's erring too far on the side of rejecting a possibly notable 60-years-dead barrister; here we have a young Nigerian, in the Internet age, without much written. If this sniffs too much of a 'promotional resume' to LibStar and ttonyb (I have a more charitable read), then I feel comfortable changing my vote to Neutral. No harm will come if it takes a few years before Eromo is notable enough by Wikipedia criteria to set up a page for himself or some notable venture he starts.
