Wikipedia articles must be written in an encyclopedic manner, not formatted as résumés (which is what you did the first time), and they must be reliably sourced to media coverage which verifies a proper pass of WP:NLAWYER, and not just to his own staff profile on the website of his own law firm (a primary source). The deletion doesn't mean he can never have an article, because you are welcome to try again if you can write and source it properly, but Wikipedia is not a free database where people are entitled to keep articles that are written and sourced like public relations advertisements — it's an encyclopedia, where any article has to be compliant with our content and formatting and sourcing rules. He could be the single most notable person in all of human history, and he still wouldn't get to keep an article that wasn't written and sourced properly. Bearcat (talk) 22:29, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
