Not notable. Just because he knew Johnny Cash and had a minority (not primary as in the article) share in a notable guitar manufacturer does not make him notable. Rusf10 (talk) 19:08, 4 December 2017 (UTC)

  • Keep nomination doesn't seem to match what is actually in the article. He wasn't just someone who met Johnny Cash. The article itself mentions quite a few notability reasons for inclusion. Sir Joseph 19:36, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
Okay, let me rephrase that, he was good friends with Johnny Cash. It still doesn't make him notable, seeWP:INVALIDBIO.--Rusf10 (talk) 19:43, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
And what about his dealings with Jackson? Sir Joseph 19:56, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
  • Keep There is a large amount of sourcing showing on my searches. I suspect that Nom had a recentism problem with his WP:BEFORE search due to the fact that Vaccero was active in the 80s. Doing stuff like developing real estate in Asbury Park N.J., messing in local politics, collecting Jackson-related stuff. Here's a search of "Henry Vaccaro" at NYTimes . Article just needs an editor willing to improve the article. Star Ledger archives would be the place to start.E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:00, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
  • Wait. Why is this at AfD altogether? there is enough stuff on the page to indicate probable notability, and a quick search ought to have resolved whatever doubts Nom harboured. I coudl see tagging it, but AfD? E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:05, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
  • Keep Apparently, the encyclopedia that anyone can edit is also the one that anyone can destroy. This is yet one more in a string of AfDs created by this nominator, none of which appear to have any evidence of WP:BEFORE being addressed. Simply stating "Not notable. Just because he knew Johnny Cash..." doesn't cut it. The sources in the article and those readily available in reliable and verifiable sources all speak to his notability as a businessperson. If it was p to me, Rusf10 wold be topic banned from AfD. Alansohn (talk) 23:10, 4 December 2017 (UTC)
