What sources I could online tend to be more about protests against his building than himself, and even those that do mention him seem to be mostly local in nature and thus might not be enough to establish notability. His family's clothing chain currently does not have an article either. Narutolovehinata5 t c csd new 00:04, 1 February 2018 (UTC) reply

His firm bought buildings in one of the most sought-after areas of Manhattan. New York City is prominent, whether we like it or not, let's start providing up-to-date information on it. Also this New York Times article about his dad.-- A21sauce ( talk) 15:48, 1 February 2018 (UTC) reply

Well if you'd bother to read the other comments you'd see he has notability apart from Abe. But the fact that you know their relationship notes the notability of Abe Betesh.-- A21sauce ( talk) 20:35, 10 February 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per WP:NOTINHERIT; he's an ordinary landlord apart from that. The mentions of him in the references are either press releases or simply describe him as a bad landlord and aren't substantive coverage. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 20:19, 1 February 2018 (UTC) reply
    Keep How is kicking 75-plus people out in the January cold "an ordinary landlord"? Always demoralizing to see low social mores in Wiki editors.-- A21sauce ( talk) 15:30, 2 February 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep There is a great deal of secondary source coverage, and likely to be more in the future, which supports the need for this entry. This kind of work would also help areas that need more coverage in Wikipedia such that on landlord harassment and WikiProject Urban studies.- Mozucat ( talk) 19:24, 3 February 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Wikipedia is not news, even less tabloid news, and we should not have articles built around lines like "the tennants believe otherwise". John Pack Lambert ( talk) 02:50, 5 February 2018 (UTC) reply
