Non-notability; see WP:BIO. Just because someone's extremely rich doesn't mean he's notable. Almost no information is provided (three sentences), so I can't accurately judge the notability, but from what I can see, this article should be deleted.

• Neutral Being rich might not, but amassing a collection of 200+ Picasso's might. I am staying neutral. Somitho 06:49, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Subject is an influential art dealer, as evidenced in articles from artnet.com, The Financial Times and Bloomberg.com. Article needs major work, though. Caknuck 07:45, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable at least as an art collector. Has to be verified/referenced, though. GregorB 14:47, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep and expand, source and improve. Nom's reason is untrue. frummer 20:05, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, I second frummer and Caknuck Alf photoman 23:22, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete in my opinion, the quick answer is money has nothing to do with importance however how it is used may affect the importance factor. If he was to be some sort of great philantropist, maybe, but all this article basically says is there was some person that made billions in the art business. It says nothing about him being the artist, all it says is he was just wealthy making it non-notable in my opinion. Atlantis Hawk 05:40, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
• keep please per caknuck there are reliable sources available for this Yuckfoo 02:45, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Not notable. Some of the paintings he bought might be. If there are any entries for the paintings, his name could be mentioned in those entries.TruthGal 02:22, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
