[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/David_Constable Prior AfD] in 2009 was closed as unanimous delete. Page was re-created in 2016. However, none of the citations on the page, nor any I could find, are the types of in-depth profiles in mainstream publications Wikipedia requires. COI Disclosure: I work for Mr. Constable's employer Fluor. My initial intention was to update and improve the page, before I learned that this may violate Wikipedia's rules, since he likely doesn't qualify for a page in the first place.

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople and Canada. Shellwood (talk) 17:44, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete - Per WP:ANYBIO. This appears to be a bio of someone whose employment history was being appointed to given positions, eventually becoming the CEO, and yet another later was appointed chairman and chief executive officer. His background is unknown, and no indication of any accomplishments. — Maile (talk) 23:35, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: Gsearch is primary links to his employer then various salary websites. Gnews is only six links about his promotion. None of which are helpful to show notability. Oaktree b (talk) 01:23, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: I found it strange that an employee of the company wants this deleted and wonder if there are ulterior motives here. Per my analysis subject is notable and has enough news coverage. Besides citations already listed on the article, there are more that come up in Google news such as [https://www.constructionbriefing.com/news/fluor-appoints-new-ceo-as-david-e-constable-becomes-executive-chairman/8050984.article?zephr_sso_ott=XuIPGR 1], [https://www.enr.com/articles/50569-fluor-names-former-exec-david-constable-as-new-ceo 2] and [https://www.constructiondive.com/news/fluor-names-3rd-ceo-in-2-years/588297/ 3].Mysecretgarden (talk) 08:47, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- :I share your possible concerns about the nomination, but these don't appear to be independent of the press release/announcement of appointment. I think Oaktree b described these above. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:11, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- :: More likely updating who the executives are. Per [https://www.fluor.com/about-fluor/leadership/fluor-management-team fluor-management-team] it looks like Constable is no longer with this company. Take Fluor out of this article, and there is nothing notable about David E. Constable. — Maile (talk) 13:47, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete: I'm only finding articles about him becoming and then leaving CEO positions. Looks like routine reporting parroting press releases. Not enough for WP:GNG. TarnishedPathtalk 10:52, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete. Ulterior motive or no, the GNG isn't met. Of Mysecretgarden's sources, the first one contains two or three sentences about Constable, announcing the appointment. The rest is quotes or the company's financials. The second is better, but I'm not certain that it's sigcov. The third again has two sentences of coverage about him (in the bullet points at the top); the rest is just quotes and information about the company unrelated to Constable. I don't think the citations in the article, also mostly routine CEO announcements with no info about him and one of which is a company website, are independent sigcov either.
