Andrew Di Dia

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Completely unsourced WP:BIO1E of a person notable only as the designer of a single car — and I don't even mean a single model of car, I mean only one single solitary car was ever made at all. It might be appropriate to include a bit of information about him in DiDia 150, but neither the notability nor the sourceability are sufficient to support a standalone biography of him as a separate topic from the car. Delete, or redirect to DiDia 150. Bearcat (talk) 22:44, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BLP1E. D4iNa4 (talk) 08:35, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to DiDia 150 (with the history preserved under the redirect) because most of the sources are about the single solitary car he designed. There is only one source specifically about him:
1. Ernst, Kurt (2014-03-12). "Andrew DiDia, designer of DiDia 150, dies at age 96". Hemmings Motor News. Archived from the original on 2016-01-31. Retrieved 2016-01-31.
I recommend preserving the article's history, so the article creator, Tinkertron (talk · contribs), can merge any useful information to DiDia 150 using a source like Hemmings Motor News.
No prejudice against undoing the redirect if more sources surface that are specifically about Andrew Di Dia.
I have notified the article creator of the deletion nomination since he was not notified.

Redirect if needed if this is questionably notable. SwisterTwister talk 19:56, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect - as per SwisterTwister and Cunard (at least I think that's who the other editor suggesting redirect was). Clear case of WP:BLP1E. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
