The result was   merge to Jeana Keough. There is a consensus to merge and redirect the article to Matt Keough and Jeana Keough. Per Spanneraol, redirecting to Jeana Keough is a better option, however first I am tagging it for a merge. (non-admin closure) ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛  Talk Email 15:07, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Shane Keough

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable individual. Fails WP:GNG and WP:BASE/N. Notability is not inherited, as his seems to be as he is somewhat, somehow associated with a reality TV show. The biography of his article seems almost to entirely establish his notability through inheritance.

His involvement with the show, from what I can tell, is hardly mentioned on Google News Archives. All other results are WP:ROUTINE. He was a rather WP:Run of the mill minor leaguer, and minor leaguers are not inherently notable per WP:BASE/N. His secondary involvement on the reality show was a rather WP:Run of the mill too, come to think of it. Alex (talk) 03:49, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Matt Keough after merging sourced, high level material that would be relevant to the "personal life" section of that article, e.g., "Matt's son Shane also played professional baseball. He was drafted by XXX and played in the minor leagues from XXXX to XXXX." Rlendog (talk) 04:01, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to Matt Keough. Not notable for standalone article, but should always strive to preserve verifiable information.—Bagumba (talk) 04:08, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Jeana Keough rather than to his dad, cause it seems like people searching for info on him might be coming more from his brief appearances on his mom's reality show. Spanneraol (talk) 15:05, 7 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Jeana Keough. I had a hard time deciding between the two, but I think Spanneraol is right. A reference to Shane is made at Matt's page already. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:39, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
