All the sources fail WP:GNG and cannot establish WP:SIGCOV of the subject. They are either puff piece, our story section, no single mention or or pass mentioned sources. Ibjaja055 (talk) 11:03, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Nothing to establish WP:GNG, WP:BASIC or WP:ANYBIO here. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:48, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: In my opinion, there is no valid secondary sourcing provided to prove notability enough to warrant a page under WP:ANYBIO. Also, BellaNaija is a fashion blog, not a newspaper. It is not practicing journalism in my view, it never seems impartial and only writes "puff" pieces. Yet this same website is listed in so many different articles that are up for deletion.

  Hello @Ibjaja055,

  I would like to kindly request that we reconsider the potential deletion of the Tobi Asehinde article, as I believe it now better aligns with Wikipedia's notability and content guidelines. Recent improvements have been made to strengthen the article with additional independent, verifiable sources and detailed context on his professional achievements, philanthropy, and impact in the digital marketing industry.

  Key Improvements

  1. Enhanced References: The article now includes third-party sources such as BusinessDay NG, Vanguard, and TechCity, which highlight Asehinde’s contributions to the global digital skills market and the creation of job-matching platforms for African talent.
  2. Increased Context on Leadership Roles: Detailed information on his leadership within the Nigeria-Britain Association and other organizations has been added to show his broader influence beyond his business ventures.
  3. Relevant Links to Related Topics: The updated article connects Asehinde’s work to the ecosystem of African digital entrepreneurs, linking it to figures like Sim Shagaya and Abasi Ene-Obong, improving its integration with related Wikipedia content.

  Notability Criteria

  Asehinde’s significant contributions to education technology, job creation, and youth empowerment align with Wikipedia's guidelines for notable entrepreneurs and business leaders. His work addresses key global challenges in employment and digital skills development, and he has received recognition in reputable publications.

  I believe these improvements make the article more balanced, verifiable, and informative. I appreciate the opportunity to participate in this discussion and respect the consensus-driven process. Thank you for your time and consideration. MercifulEmma (talk) 22:11, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: The new sources given are still problematic. The vanguard source is about a donation made by DMSI, and the Techcity source is also a puff piece. Morris80315436 (talk) 03:47, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
