Kenny Imafidon: Gsearch is straight to social media; article also details his arrest/criminal charges, which seem to have more information than the rest of the article.

Hey man im josh ( talk ) 14:49, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Disagree and believe he is already notable and with the publication by Penguin of That Peckham Boy next week he will receive extensive coverage and be even more notable.  He co-founded and leads a respected and financially successful think tank.  He is a published author He is notable, as far as the major UK news outlets are concerned for his life story and the way he overcame prejudice and a potential lengthy jail sentence.  His charitable work is substantial, including BBC Children in Need, which is very much a 'great and good' organisation.  He met the Queen - OK I'm not that convinced by that one but many people are.  Jimmy Wales big fan of Royal Family.  He is already a significant black voice in society with regular interviews on the mainstream media and is likely to become an even more significant figure as his work continues.  His 'Gsearch' is just like most Think Tanks - books are so 20th century I am afraid.  most of their work is for clients and does not make it into public print except in brief headlines from time to time.  YellowFratello ( talk ) 15:05, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] If there are no published sources about him, the article can't be kept.  We need proof of notability.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 15:22, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The Guardian article is not a published source?  YellowFratello ( talk ) 18:31, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for the prompt - I have done more research and added references from The BBC, The Independent Newspaper and The UK Daily Mirror.  I hope these will answer any questions of Notability.  YellowFratello ( talk ) 18:48, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I've added more sources.  It seems he's notable on more than one count - for the charitable work, which now has independent sources to verify, and also potentially for being the first person to sit and pass A Levels in prison (less coverage but more is possibly findable on this).  I think the page should passes GNG and should be kept.
