to Seventy (LDS Church). There is no exception to Wikipedia policy for LDS church leaders, and proposals to exempt LDS leaders from the  have consistently failed to achieve consensus support (see examples in Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)/Archive_2014#Religious_leaders|2014, Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)/Archive_2016#Leaders_in_The_Church_of_Jesus_Christ_of_Latter-day_Saints_and_other_religious_organizations|2016, and Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)/Archive_2017#Exception_Proposal_for_General_Authority_Seventies_of_the_LDS_Church|2017). The sources in the article are not independent per  and therefore not usable for establishing notability. Johnson's non-LDS career was in business, with General Mills, Inc., Citibank, Continental Grain Company, and Elamex, among others, so he shows up in, for example, older SEC filings https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1009302/000100547701002117/0001005477-01-002117.txt. Search of databases also finds some passing mentions in coverage of tragic incident involving a family member, brief quotes in a few Deseret News articles involving church efforts in Mexico and a ceremony honoring LDS volunteer service to the USS Missouri, and a short bio in the Deseret News on the occasion of his "release" https://www.deseretnews.com/article/865663766/Four-members-of-the-Seventy-released-Saturday-afternoon.html. This is all routine or superficial coverage, and does not constitute in-depth coverage of subject in multiple, secondary, independent, reliable sources, so right now it doesn't look like subject passes . Redirecting to Seventy (LDS Church) is a sensible alternative to deletion. Open to reconsideration if in-depth coverage emerges
