Hi SwisterTwister, hi Gbawden I am fairly new on Wikipedia and I am afraid I do not fully understand why this draft does not meet the notability criteria yet.

- he was the youngest Executive Vice President Finance of SEAT. - he was the CEO of Sartorius AG in Goettingen, Germany (has its own medium long wiki article), in addition, the company is an international acclaimed pharmaceutical and laboratory equipment supplier. - From 2003 to until 2007 he was CEO of EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg, which has its own lengthy wikipedia article and is the third-largest utilities company in Germany - From December 2014 - June 2016, Claassen was President of RCD Mallorca, a highly popular spanish football club.

Hi @Northamerica1000: thanks for the quick edits and the friendly improvement suggestions. I followed the advice from you, SwisterTwister and Gbawden and added further references and text that emphasize the article's independent notability (see above). I also checked the wikipedia articles of other notable German CEOs and found that there are articles about CEOs which headed smaller companies (taking into account both employees and turnover) such as https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Hainer. Hence, I am now feeling confident about submitting the draft. Since you have a very impressive track record of edits I would like to ask for your final feedback before I take this step. Best regards and looking forward to your opinion. --Dosenbier1990 (talk) 11:10, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
