No notability separate from that of the company he inherited. Suggest a Redirect to Estudio Lamela is the best outcome. Cabayi (talk) 15:28, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• keep. Nomination without merit. Let's delete Barack Obama page because nobody knows him other than as POTUS. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:59, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Obama already had established notability as a US Senator & as a state senator. His notability as POTUS overshadows those claims, but they do exist. Obama achieved those claims for himself, he didn't inherit them from his father as Lamela did his business. Lamela has NO notability beyond the company which is already adequately documented. We don't need two copies of the company's portfolio. Cabayi (talk) 11:34, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to do nitpicking, Lamela is former president of the Spanish chapter of the Urban Land Institute. However this is irrelevant. Company and person are two different subjects. A person is notable for his deeds. I suggest you to review WP:NBIO and WP:GNG. The guideline says nothing about how many companies a person owns. Just like a scientist makes a single major discovery and suddenly everyone wants to know what else did he do before that. Staszek Lem (talk) 18:08, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

On the other hand I do agree that We don't need two copies of the company's portfolio . Lamela's personal article must list only works in which he immediately participated. But this is a matter of routine article cleanup/restructuring. Staszek Lem (talk) 18:19, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Wikipedia is not an advertising platform, and we need to remove articles created in violation of policy.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:45, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong venue  Nominator argues for a redirect.  There is also a delete !vote, but it is a drive-by added in 2 minutes as part of a mass addition of !votes.  And except for unusual cases, the remedy for promotion is neutral writing, as topics are not inherently promotions.  Note that there is an article on the es Wikipedia.  Unscintillating (talk) 14:32, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
