Michael "Wise Mike" Stepovich

This person's claim to fame seems to consist of a) having a son who was a governor, and b) being inducted into the Alaska Mining Hall of Fame. Poorly sourced, and a search finds only passing mentions in his son's obits etc. Fails WP:BIO / WP:GNG. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:38, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment there is a book about this person. Also found this source. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 10:28, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
 * The book is about this person's widow, rather. And in any case written by her relative, so not independent of the subject. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:51, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete having a son who becomes governor of a state does not make an individual notable. That is the only way we could find Stepovich notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:19, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete. Any information about Marko Stijepović being inducted into the Hall of fame could be placed on his son's page. 81.131.132.199 (talk) 00:55, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
