Moved to mainspace by GMH Melbourne (talk).

Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 5 past nominations.

Post-promotion hook changes will be logged on the talk page; consider watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.

The article was moved to mainspace today, so is new enough. At just over 1800 characters, it is long enough. The article properly uses in-line citations and the copyvio detector finds nothing outside of groups and positions. The hook is interesting and cited inline. The QPQ has been done. The only thing I'll note is that there's certainly sources out there to beef up the article more, including recent contempt threats and just older general news articles about him. Anyways, looks good to go. Silver seren^C 00:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GMH Melbourne and Silver seren: What makes this dude notable, given there are only three references and one of them's Woolworths' annual report (and the other two are from the same day)?--Laun chba ller 14:11, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As I noted in my review, there's a large number of other sources about him that could be added and I highly suggested the nominator do so. Silver seren^C 20:41, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Without which this would deserve (at minimum) {{refimprove}}. I must see some more relevant sources in the article before I promote this.--Laun chba ller 21:15, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Launchballer, I've added a couple of references to the article to assist GMH Melbourne. Is it good enough now to meet requirements? Silver seren^C 01:28, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's much better. I won't promote while there are five hooks in the bottom set, but this is ready.--Laun chba ller 08:20, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
