Michael Jordan Steaks

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Page seems like blatant advertising for Michael Jordan's steak business. I don't even think its notable as I never heard about it till today. I recommend this page be deleted and maybe a one line blurb about his steak business be inserted here. Burp The Baby   (Talk)  18:16, 6 November 2008 (UTC) 
 * Delete A mention in his article would suffice. An additional article is superfluous IRK! Leave me a note or two 18:23, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep Notability easily established the usual way. For instance, This Sun-Times article - looking produces many more. Wily D  15:38, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep & Rename - It appears to be called The Steakhouse in the Sun Times article, maybe im just reading it wrong?? - Marcusmax ( speak ) 23:06, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete A mention in his article would be more appropriate and less like blatant advertising. Notability of the steaks (absent Mr. Jordan's own notability) is also questionable. Geoff (talk) 15:38, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:18, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Keep and move, the restaurant chain is notable. This can be discussed in context. StarM 22:29, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Although notability is not inherited, this looks like a borderline case as it is an actual business if you take Michael Jordan away from the equation. Tavix (talk) 00:26, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete- there are lots of companies in the world. Most are not notable. This one's only claim is inherited from Mr. Jordan, and that doesn't cut it. Reyk  YO!  01:36, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: smells like spam. Alexius08 (talk) 14:10, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * There's positively nothing about this company so sizzling as to add to the sum total of humanity's knowledge (separate from "factoids"). Delete, add a small blurb about the fact that Michael Jordan now runs a steak shop to the main Michael Jordan article. "It exists" is not enough to keep an article, and the sum total of all provided newspaper articles is, "this place exists. It's run by Michael Jordan and it exists. Isn't that amazing?".
