Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Esther Gordy Edwards
My nomination for this article stems from her notability as a business manager only being notable because the business itself is notable. Does the CEO of every notable company deserve his or her own article simply because they were the CEO? Even if he or she did nothing notable as a CEO? It seems like the cause her publicity after death is largely the result of the position simply being a very publicly visible one because of the well known nature of the company itself. Because of that, it seems like her notability is largely the result of the same principle as . If anyone can explain why this counts as notability, I would appreciate it since I am a new user and would like to better understand the guidelines
