While the notability of his wife and especially her death is well-established, the article subject may not be. Notability is not inherited, and the only cites to WP:RS for Ostroy are articles he wrote to contradict political use of his wife's death, which is well-covered on her page.

 * Keep Subject is notable, seems to have enough references. Neptune&#39;s Trident (talk) 19:58, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete The article is too heavily reliant on primary sources. We have evidence that he wrote articles critical of Donald Trump. However the evidence is the articles themselves, thus primary sources, thus a lack of secondary sources to show that Ostroy is in any way notable or that people actually paid attention to his writing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:06, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Wrong forum Given that the topic is covered elsewhere in the encyclopedia, WP:DEL8 is not a deletion argument.  AfD has a backlog without taking on content issues.  Unscintillating (talk) 20:22, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
