The result was keep. Going with keeps. I did a Google news search for the subject and I do believe with the right sourcing, etc, he qualifies via WP:GNG. Missvain (talk) 18:21, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

- Keep AFAIK the book Charlie Mike is published by Simon and Schuster and is "50%" about him and his Team Rubicon work. I would have thought that, when added to the other sources, was more than enough to meet GNG. No doubt the book has more personal info as well as details on the Team Rubicon stuff.

- Keep Jake Wood and William McNulty co-founded Team Rubicon. He and his non-profit has received considerable media coverage. Asher Heimermann (talk)
- @Asher Heimermann: There are no notability policies on Wikipedia that says if you found an NGO or a company then you are notable. I founded an NGO or more explicitly a charity once, am I notable? Could be by your rules, but of course, I'm not and neither is this person. Where is the reference to support it? Three per WP:THREE would do it. scope_creepTalk 13:31, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
- He might have a couple of honourary degrees. If you could find them, it would be ideal. scope_creepTalk 13:33, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep I agree that there is enough coverage about this individual to show notability, together with the awards and the founding of a notable organization. Added mention to his newest book, and reviews of the book about him. Alan Islas (talk) 05:32, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
