 * why keep ? please provide reason. --Saqib (talk) 07:21, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
 * The article has way too much detail on these things. Co-founding a $500 million company is notable. Being a party to non-notable lawsuits is not. Power~enwiki (talk) 02:12, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. Remove "Philanthropy" (or reduce - which I just did), but most definitely keep lawsuits - which is why he is notable. the "edible arrangements" by itself doesn't make him notable (though it is an interesting business and did get some coverage). His serial lawsuits (and coverage of) alleging discrimination against himself, Muslims, and Islamic institutions - quite a collection of cases - push him over the notability line.
