Barry Habib: 1. Won a forecasting award several times - Looking into this, I'm struggling to find any secondary coverage that indicates this is something that people in the finance industry actually care about.  It's produced by a specialised consultancy Gartner-style, but barring some extra indicator of relevance, I don't see that it has attracted significant media attention.  The business/finance industry is full of promotional awards and pay to play nonsense, so my default take on this kind of thing is to discredit them unless there's specific evidence of secondary coverage.  2. Wrote a book - there is just no coverage of the book, and it is self published.  3. Had a reasonably successful career in entertainment, including some production credits and 2 minor named roles.  I'm not sure that's enough though for WP:NACTOR .  His production credits on Rock of Ages is looking very dubious - for example, here's an independent RS source that mentions most of the important people on the show and doesn't mention Habib - https://www.playbill.com/article/russell-brand-confirmed-for-rock-of-ages-movie-filming-begins-in-may-com-178224 .  I'm struggling to actually verify him as a "lead producer" on the show.  This is, of course, not withstanding the very very obvious WP:UPE issue which drips from the whole article in spades.

I don't see news about the Broadway involvement and he seems to be a "subject matter expert" in the business world [11] , [12] but all I can find are just him talking about various things to other people.  I don't see notability.

Who is this "we" commenting above, as it now appears to have unpaid promotional editing involved, which is a further concern...  You must declare any conflicts of interest please.
