All trivial press, not sign of notability beyond her company, which already has a page. Put this stuff there if anywhere. Baum des Lichtes (talk) 06:17, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to ClassPass. LibStar (talk) 04:43, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Non-trivial coverage in Fortune, Forbes, Business Insider. A database search on EBSCO shows her covered by Crain's New York Business, Dance Magazine, Cosmopolitan and Health. She is also covered over time, passes GNG. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 00:56, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep – The subject meets WP:BASIC per a review of available sources. See source examples above and those in the article. North America1000 10:11, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm also fine with a merge to ClassPass. North America1000 04:40, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep Meets WP:GNG. The page just needs to be rewritten. CerealKillerYum (talk) 20:10, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to ClassPass (and merge any information) I do see coverage about her, but at this point this is a BLP1E. The subject is solely known as a founder of ClassPass. Every single source about the subject discussed her in the context of the company which also has its own article. I decided to have a look at some of the decent coverage. This Fortune article talks more about the company, even though the title indicates otherwise. The Forbes article gives more details, but still mentions her in the same vein. Similar for this businessinsider source. Most coverage mention her involvement in the history of the company. Merging this information into the article ClassPass is a good compromise here as it can help document the history of ClassPass as well as the subject's involvement in it. This improves the target article and properly documents the founder's role. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:37, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I also favour a merge and redirect as it preserves the history and there is a possibility that in a few years, the subject may be in the news for a different company. In such a case, the merge can be easily undone and we can create a substantial article about the subject. At the moment though, this is a BLP1E and we should cover it in the context of the company. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:47, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Final relist. Both the keep and redirect !votes are strong.  Anarchyte  ( work  &#124;  talk )   03:02, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect is as far as I will go, I would even suggest also deleting as there's no inherited notability for his own article and there's simply nothing else from there. SwisterTwister   talk  21:11, 27 July 2016 (UTC)
