Not sure if this person is notable. His father is notable for being the president of a large oil company, but I don't know if this person is notable on his own. ( WP:NOTINHERIT) The article says that he was the President of football club Panathinaikos FC, but I'm not sure if that qualifies as making him notable.

I am also nominating the following related pages because he is a relative of Vardinogiannis who does not seem notable either:

• Keep Giannis - A rally driver who scored points in the top-tier series, the World Rally Championship, on multiple occasions, meets notability requirements. He competed under the pseudonym of "Jigger", and took sixth in the 1988 Acropolis, ninth in 1989, seventh in 1990, tenth in 1991, and eighth in 1992. This is verifiable in [1] He was also a multiple Greek Rally champion, but that is a relatively minor series and may not contribute to notability. Although eWRC Results is a regularly used source and is reliable, just in case you don't trust it, the official Acropolis Rally page verifies his sixth placed finish, whilst [2] is an example of a source that backs his WRC championship finish. There are also a few sources out there covering him as a chairman of Panathinaikos, such as [3] and [4]. No opinion on Yiorgos at the moment; will look him up shortly.

• Neutral on Yiorgos - In terms of English-language sources, well, there aren't many. However, I am pretty sure that there will be rather more sources in Greek; however, I don't speak Greek, and given that they use a different character set, I'm not really able to check such sources.

• Comment As written both of these articles could be deleted, but I'd be surprised if there weren't enough sources in Greek to show they both meet GNG. 204.126.132.231 ( talk) 16:54, 15 December 2014 (UTC) reply

• Weak Keep - Not to be rude but not sure is really not enough to AfD. Stick some maintenance tags on the article if that is your worry. Now, I lean to keep due to his wealth and the arguments presented by Lukeno. Also his former ownership can be verified via this coverage I found in this book.
