Daren Metropoulos

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Daren Metropoulos doesn't seem to have notability as a businessperson distinct from his father's notability. Only one of the citations in the article seems to provide a basis for a notability claim, and that is his purchase of Hugh Hefner's mansion. Fiachra10003 (talk) 18:33, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - Notability is not inherited and we cannot make one an article because he bought a big house. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 18:37, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Undecided, possibly leaning towards keep. Many if not most of the references cited in this article do not make any mention of Daren Metropoulos, which is problematic.  The few sources that do mention him by name are this sort:   It seems to me that if we cannot locate sufficient sources now, there is a likelihood this Wikipedia article may return in the future.

 * Delete Not notable in his own right. The claims for personal significance of his executive role are unsupported by third party references. The bulk of the article is about a company his family owns, not him personally. Articles such as that just cited above show nothing more than that his father gives him moeny to buy an expensive house.  It is of course possible that he may become notable in the future, and that would be the time for an article.  DGG ( talk ) 04:17, 16 September 2014 (UTC).

 * Delete, per DGG. Much of the article consists of referenced statements about the family business ("Metropoulos & Co acquired The Castle ...", "Metropoulos & Co acquired Pabst Brewing Co..."), interspersed with unreferenced statements about this person ("Daren installed a new management team ...", "Daren was appointed Co- Chief Executive Officer and played an intimate role ..."). Both should be removed; once that is done, there's little or nothing left here. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:43, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
