Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/James Chanos
I'm surprised I'm saying this, especially I'm usually a deletionist and this article, as presently written, is completely dreadful.  The whole thing is written as shameless .  But anything that can be fixed by editing is off the table in an AfD.  Here, the question is notability.  From #CONTENT:  ''"If the page can be improved, this should be solved through regular editing, rather than deletion."''  Clicking the Google books link instantly turns up a lot of hits that actually do talk about this guy, e.g., ''"His face gaunt and mournful, James Chanos is not an upbeat guy. He certainly is not a popular man in Corporate America. If Chanos is poking around a stock, it usually indicates he sees ..."''  I'm satisfied the guy is notable and even though this article isn't it, that an acceptable article is possible
