Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Patrick J. Lavelle
without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can do better than this. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be properly referenced, but the sources aren't getting him over  — except for the ''Who's Who in Canadian Business'' blurb, which is ''not'' enough by itself, every other source here is just a glancing namecheck of his existence in a source that is not ''about'' him, such as the primary source text of a court document (which is not support for notability) or content which quotes him as the ''speaker'' in coverage of a subject ''other'' than himself (which is not support for notability either). This is not how you source a person as notable enough for a Wikipedia article: he needs to be the ''subject'' of coverage, not the creator of or a soundbite-giver in coverage of ''other'' subjects, to clear GNG
