This has been around a long time but the refs generally make no mention of Chad Steelberg, or at best as a peripheral mention. This is about the business he was involved him and not the man. No evidence of notability (other than he is rich) is demonstrated. On the basis of these refs which have been around since 2011, it appears to fail WP:GNG  Velella  Velella Talk   21:48, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not sure by maybe simply delete as they are quite a bit of results here, here, here and here so you would think something here is notable but I'm not sure and it's likely simply a case of non-notability for them and simply coverage for companies they have now sold.

  • Delete - It looks like the companies that they're associated with are more notable then they are. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 07:31, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Founding notable companies is notable. Founding just one raises the question of whether the information about the founder should be incorporated into the articleo n the company,but when it's several, then there is no single place to redirect to and it warrants a separate article. see also the article on Ryan Steelberg; most of the refs there apply here also.(and, if this does get deleted, so do the problems) DGG ( talk ) 00:36, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
