Conflict of interest - initial/main contributor appears to also be the subject, notability outside local area highly questionable. Dethme0w (talk) 06:07, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The Lunch Club is well known in Boston, London and Dublin, aside from NYC, and there are several major news articles to prove that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.108.51.87 (talk) 00:37, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. References in the article show notability. If there are issues with COI they should be fixed by editing, not deletion. Phil Bridger (talk) 10:29, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Agree to keep. I met my wife at a Lunch Club event. While it is not a dating club, it makes it easy to get to know people when you move to a new city (as I did when moving to New York in 2002). I appreciate what Jared and his organization have done, and suggest the entry stay. - James Kotchold, NYC —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.108.133.25 (talk) 15:02, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. If "the Lunch Club" is the notable subject (which both "keep" editors are asserting, the article should be titled The Lunch Club. Have either "the Lunch Club", or for that matter, the founder Jared Nissim been the subject of verifiable, independent reliable sources?. I can't find any.

- Comment. Why not start by looking at the links in the article? They are from verifiable, independent reliable sources and discuss Jared Nissim's founding of two different enterprises, so it would be wrong to move the article to just one of those. Phil Bridger (talk) 23:08, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Nissim isn't mentioned in several of those articles, but he's discussed extensively in others. Those that don't mention him do document the notability of his enterprises. As Phil Bridger notes, the individual seems to be known for two things and so moving this to "Lunch Club" would be inappropriate. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:05, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
