Fails WP:GNG. Notability is not inherited. This was a redirect to Richard Branson's article until today when someone decided to expand it into the nothing that it now is. Bbb23 (talk) 01:21, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Comment Sam Branson has attracted 'significant' media coverage and been interviewed by reliable sources, some of the non-tabloid ones include:

Plus, there's the book he co-authored with his father:

 * Comment His notability, like that of his sister, is borderline. He does have a very famous father, but does have some of his own notability. Some of his notability is because of his father, e.g. he was in the film Superman Returns because his father was invited to cameo in it, but being in the film gives him some notability in his own right and that notability is not inherited.Martin 4 5 1  (talk) 10:05, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete -- I see no notability in anything he has done. Alternatively redirect to his father.  Notability is not inherited.  Peterkingiron (talk) 21:31, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep Article is craptastic, but the subject is clearly notable per substantial coverage in reliable independent sources. The offspring of notable people often attain notability on their own even if it is in large part established on the foundation of their heridity. Candleabracadabra (talk) 02:43, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete - Notability is not inherited. Son of a really rich guy, some tabloid fluff, no significant coverage. Carrite (talk) 17:51, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete There has to something actually done to be notable for. The movie role isn;t, and except for the tabloid-style coverage here, would have been a speedy A7.  DGG ( talk ) 03:36, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
