Update[edit]

Adding more detail to hedge funders on the Rich List at the moment. Lots in this one that was out of date & unreferenced. Found all the extra references & added extra information. As always, let me know if anything jumps out. ScepticalChymist (talk) 17:31, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion[edit]

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (This piece is about an important British business man who manages one of the largest hedge funds in the world. He has been written about in The New York Times, Bloomberg News, The Wall Street Journal and Forbes Magazine amongst others. He certainly meets the standards for notibility.There are hundreds of other hedge fund managers listed on wikipedia, many of whom manage significantly smaller funds than Ewan Kirk does. Here is a link to the categories showing very similar profiles to the one I wrote. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:American_hedge_fund_managers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:English_hedge_fund_managers. There is nothing promotional about the piece that I have written it is objective, well sourced, and in no way suggest that anyone should invest in these funds.

There are probably 50 hedge funds based in the UK that manage over $1 billion, I plan on slowly starting wikipedia pages on the most important ones over the next few months. As you can see from my above links the American Fund managers are better represented on Wikipedia than the British ones, and for no good reason. It is neither productive nor helpful having these pieces nominated for deletion. If people feel they are badly written or promotional, they are free to edit the article. I based the writing style on other Wikipedia profiles of famous hedge fund managers, and I can not see how my pieces are any different than the existing pieces linked to above.) --Hedgefunding (talk) 17:48, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
