Atrociously promotional, wretchedly sourced, and deceptive, as well as being a possible copyvio of the subject's LinkedIn profile. Briefly mentioned in the British press as a "party planner" for high school kids from rich families when Prince William attended one of his "events", accompanied by tabloidery about underage sex and drug and alcohol use. and a steady string of businesses that crash and burn amid stacks of unpaid debts. Somehow I'm not surprised that this BLP has exactly zero referenced claims. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 20:16, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete If we were to keep the article, we'd have to write it from scratch, using independent sources. I found the same sources as Hullaballoo Wolfowitz. They suggest that Etzin could actually be notable, but for embarrassing reasons: running a scheme to evade taxes on cigarettes, and running a surprising number of businesses into bankruptcy while still in his 20s. says, "With Justin Etzin's track record, is it any surprise if his latest business venture isn't exactly above board?"  However, I didn't find any sources that provided this information with enough certainty for us to say these things with authority. So, per WP:BLPCRIME and WP:BLP generally, better that we say nothing at all. —Ben Kovitz (talk) 08:10, 19 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete with Hullaballoo Wolfowitz and Ben Kovitz. Nothing at Gnews. And discussing whether he meets WP:BLPCRIME... Not with me. -- Dewritech (talk)  10:46, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
