{{AFC comment|1=I am simply not seeing notability, here. Being a relatively successful businessman does not generally confer notability. You have now had six seperate reviewers assert that they do not see notability. If you are unable to find a a new piece of information that would confer notability back with a reliable, secondary source, I would say that the next reviewer would likely be correct to reject this article rather than simply declining it.

{{AFC comment|1=This reads like a promotional page for the subject. A large chunk of it is about his family and not the subject. Ktkvtsh (talk) 23:35, 3 October 2024 (UTC)}}

{{AFC comment|1=Some key points:

1. His family does not make him notanle.

2. Things like a wrestling letter are not notable.

3. That the company has raised funds does not make him notable. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:09, 2 October 2024 (UTC)}}
