This was previously deleted at Articles for deletion/Adrian Provost and this recreation still lacks the significant secondary independent sources that are required. The only source that is actually about the subject is an interview from a questionable source. Spartaz Humbug! 16:50, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Neutral Weak Delete. Almost everything in here is verifiable. Notability is borderline. I think it would be guaranteed if the thing about being the "youngest franchise owner in the history of American professional sports" is given an actual supporting citation, preferably from a source that's not already being used. - Jorgath (talk) (contribs) 17:23, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Rethought what I said. Essentially, I'm for deletion unless the youngest franchise owner thing gets verified. - Jorgath (talk) (contribs) 18:00, 10 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete, a lot of sub-notable accomplishments don't add up to notability. Hairhorn (talk) 17:28, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete, I can't find any support for the claim about being the youngest owner ever. While most of the things are verifiable, they are not things that make him notable. --bonadea contributions talk 17:56, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Even if "youngest owner of [blah blah blah] ever" is true, that's not sufficient for notability IMO. It's kind of a moving bar -- the next time someone even younger becomes an owner does this one suddenly become less notable?  --Lquilter (talk) 17:13, 12 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - His main activity appears to be as a real estate agent at which I imagine he is quite successful, but not in a way that has generated the coverage needed to establish notability. The claim as youngest sports franchise owner, if true, represents a point of trivia and not a claim to notability that would demand inclusion in an encyclopedia. -- Whpq (talk) 16:34, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
