I don't think Brandon Steiner is notable enough to warrant his own article, however, his company, Steiner Sports does. I figure this article can be deleted and a Steiner Sports article can be created? SarahStierch (talk) 19:42, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Move/rewrite to/as Steiner Sports. Although I agree with the nominator that Steiner is not notable and Steiner Sports is, I don't see anything in the current article that requires actual deletion. Unless something I missed violates WP:BLP, we might as well just give it a complete rewrite to be about the company, while preserving the history. - Jorgath (talk) ^(contribs) 19:47, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Personally, I don't see why he isn't notable enough...he has a nationally televised show, he is the guy who bought Yankee Stadium, and he's a huge public figure in the NY/tri-state area. I was thinking of doing an additional article on Steiner Sports as well, but it seems unnecessary to take down Brandon Steiner page to do that Golombjesse (talk) 16:39, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep or redirect/mnerge - certainly there is notable stuff here, I would have said for both subjects, but a shared article would be fine. Rich Farmbrough, 16:56, 22 August 2012 (UTC).[reply]
  
• Keep In my view he deserves his own article.--Juristicweb (talk) 03:12, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Any memorabilia buff knows what Steiner Sports is, and they deserve its own article. The issue is that the sources specifically state either Steiner Sports, or his involvement with the company. Rename to Steiner Sports, as most of the information about him is about his company and Keep Secret ^account 00:44, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Brandon Steiner is mentioned in over 600 news articles (see, e.g., name in title, name in title, detailed bio info, detailed bio info). Over 600 news articles is plenty of source material from which to write a biography article on the topic per WP:GNG. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 05:28, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
