Mark Rockefeller

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

Nelson Rockefeller's youngest son is perhaps a respectable small businessman—nothing wrong with that. But I see nothing about him that sticks out above any number of other such figures who don't happen to be Rockefellers; the citations in the article argue against any sort of larger notability. Perhaps his best claim to fame so far is having been leading pass receiver in the Ivy League in 1988, but that's pretty small potatoes. Mangoe (talk) 15:12, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. I understand that notability is not inherited, but I think the combination of being Nelson Rockefeller's son as well as the Chairman of the Board for the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and Historic Hudson Valley is just enough for a stand-alone biography.
