Warren David

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This person is not the topic of substantial coverage in multiple reliable sources, and fails WP:GNG. No event or achievement described in current or past versions of this article rises to WP:ANYBIO, sourcing concerns aside. This subject has zero independent notability from his organization, the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC); compare his predecessors Sara Najjar Wilson (not notable) and Mary Rose Oakar (independently notable as a politician). Current sources actually cite this subject speaking as a spokesperson (his commentary itself is not notable) about a totally different topic (such as a Coke commercial during the Superbowl, which doesn't say anything about Warren David). There's also coverage of this subject's other organization (an example), but it is mostly sourced directly to David (not excellent for an indication of significance or reliability of coverage) and it is not biographical coverage to say the least. The best I could find was just under 4 pages of biographical coverage in a 148-page book. FWIW this book is mostly based on interviews with ADC members and is promoted on the ADC website.

Delete As someone who prodded this recently as an unsourced BLP when it had no attempt at any sources I was coming here to say pretty much exactly what the nominator said about the newly added sources. Mentioning that he is the president of the group in a news article that's not about him but what he says in basically a let's reprint the press release sort of way does not establish notability for him as a person separate from the group. If not a delete, redirect to American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. DreamGuy (talk) 02:48, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
