 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Extremely likely search term. Merge to Brookfield Asset Management.--Jahaza (talk) 19:52, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect as I would've actually said to simply delete but as it seems he was also the President and CEO, that would suggest closer connections to the company so mentioning him there (he's currently not) would be acceptable. SwisterTwister   talk  07:55, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as Clark's notability is shown through the multiple, independent sources that cite him as an international leader in the field of real estate. He is cited by name by both Bloomberg and IPE Real Estate as a leader in his field and one of the most influential real estate developers today.Forget Paris (talk) 06:02, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep Doing more research, I found awards that Clark has won and created an Awards section with references to add to his notability. Forget Paris (talk) 09:00, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
 * You can't vote multiple times for your own article :) You can continue adding relevant information, but the last keep is definitely out of context. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 12:05, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Struck duplicate !vote above, only one allowed, but feel free to comment all you'd like. North America1000 16:06, 1 February 2016 (UTC)


 * First of all I feel the need to apologize for using the word Keep in my last comment, since it seems to have been misleading. But I would like to point out that this discussion forum is not a "vote" and it should not matter if the word "keep" is used in a comment. My understanding is that all arguments are evaluated by an independent editor, and a decision as to whether to "keep" "merge" or "delete" is made, not based on counting the number of "votes" but on an assessment of the arguments and an objective examination of the article in question. Since it appears that Arthistorian is the only one in this discussion who even suggested deleting, and all other votes are for merge or keep, I feel we need to be perhaps somewhat suspicious of the motives of Arthistorian. I will reiterate what I tried to say above, but this time without the word "keep," that I am doing more research, and have added some more information about Ric Clark, and hope to continue to, and hope more wiki editors will continue to contribute to this article. I feel Ric Clark is notable enough to have his own independent wikipedia article, as many other CEOs of large companies also have their own Wikipedia articles.Forget Paris (talk) 07:55, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - CEO of a huge realty company. Bearian (talk) 20:15, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
