Administrative relisting for proper inclusion in AFD, no comment on article. Nakon 05:24, 7 May 2016 (UTC)

The very notion that this article should exist is extremely dubious. If the revision history is viewed, it is clear to see that the page was created by the subject of this article for self promotion. Much that has been provided is content that is either only possibly known by the subject himself, or is so inflated that only someone with extreme self interest in the subject would write. The subject is not notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia page. Barely any of the 30 under 30 Forbes Honorees have Wikipedia pages, as being chosen for 30 under 30 itself does not make you notable. With the multiple categories, the subject was not even featured. The claim that he was the youngest VC is made by an article that did not show proof as to him actually being the youngest, and is unless otherwise proven, an unsubstantiated claim.

 * Conflict of Interest
 * Weak Delete There are references, however they are mostly not about the subject. However, I could see if there were a few more RS for the subject, that may pop up over time, it would be worth keeping. Deathlibrarian (talk) 05:49, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - Notability established by and . WP:TNT not not required to fix COI issues. ~Kvng (talk) 01:12, 10 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete at best and Draft if needed, as this has existed since August 2012 and not only that, but the only solid best here is the Fortune listing and information thus still questionable and I believe it's better to wait for a better article considering simply the article's overall appearance and suggestance. Notifying since he may be interested with this.  SwisterTwister   talk  06:12, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. youngest venture capitalist -- which seems a completely unreliable claim -- is just tabloid fodder, not anythingsignificant. A7would apply here.  DGG ( talk ) 07:58, 14 May 2016 (UTC)
