Does not meet GNG nor WP:BIO; subject has coverage in tabloid media (newspapers). Subject has done nothing notable other than founding a company. Ireneshih (talk) 11:10, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep Granted, it is an obvious piece of self-promotion and needs paring down. Creative professionals in all fields do this on Wikipedia (or try), the thing is, we keep the articles if notability can be verified. Even if they are lousy articles. But this is far from the worst of the type: it actually has some usable sources.  Coverage in tabloids such as ABC certainly counts towards notability. Note, however, that El Economista is not a tabloid. And legitimate Hebrew news media (TheMarker) that cover business.  There does seem to be notability established by these sources and by sources including:  for Meiri/Orpan Group under WP:CREATIVE "# 3. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." i.e., the attractions he and his company creates garner significant media attention.  He falls more or less into the category of notable curators or set designers; see, for example, Lisa Small, George Tsypin). I have added category: museum exhibit designers to article, click on it and see that we have multiple articles about careers  of this type.  Also, where a creative artist and the corporation he founds are more or less synonymous, we have a single article with notability supported by articles about the artist and/or about the corporation (cf. Georg Jensen; Anne Klein)   E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:35, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Slightly Weak Keep, nominator routinely nominates articles and mentions "tabloid" newspapers but either uses that as a weasel word or doesn't realize the distinction in printing between tabloid and broadsheet. Regardless, there's enough sources and claims and assertions of notability to keep this, even a bit weakly though.
 * Delete too many of the citations are to building that don't even mention him. This is almost a "one event person" as those articles that do mention him are predominately about Toledo. The coverage is not in-depth. --Bejnar (talk) 19:54, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - not enough in-depth coverage to show they pass WP:GNG - 5 trivial mentions on News; zip on Newspapers, Highbeam and Scholar; a single trivial hit on Books.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:24, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
