apparent sock editors. Also, the subject's bio page seems to postdate the text involved; and, via the Internet Archive and other places, I can't find any sign that the bio page existed until the second half of 2010, well after the article text was in place. I'd searched in the past for potential copyvio sources, but none had turned up during prior disputes over the article. As for notability in general, there are so many news sources out there -- 80+ pieces in the New York Times alone, some of course quite trivial or repetitive; a small pile in New York magazine; and even more in other NYC-based media -- that I fear a short but adequate article could be written. I just couldn't bear slogging through all the gossip, entertaining as some of the stuff that can't go into the article was, like the complaints from ex-employees who complained his clubs stiffed them. I think he's a self-promoting parasite who contributes nothing of value to society, even if my opinion were verifiable, he'd still be a notable leech.
48:. The question being considered here is "is the criteria of signficant, non-trivial coverage present?" The consensus would seem to be that there is not - the references provided (both in the article and in the discussion) are dismissed as either minor mentions or no-mentions. I have ignore the comment from TodayILearned, as that user has edited nothing other than this page and the article. 376:
I don't think it's a copyvio because it looks to me like the subject copied the Knowledge (XXG) article.

324:. There seems to be, barely, enough newspaper and magazine coverage to meet the GNG and enable an editor to write an adequate article. Not that I can see why anyone would want to. The article is lousy, and the subject now uses it as his promotional bio. 611:. Not sure what your thoughts are, but the second and third sources you provided above do not mention the subject at all, while the other three merely offer a brief mention in passing. None of these equate to significant coverage. Best regards, 352:

553: 665:. Yes there are some articles that mention him. No this is not significant coverage, not significant enough to establish the subject as worthy of encyclopedic inclusion. 537: 165: 348:?
