Merge

This doesn't deserve its own article. It's too short and can be covered in sufficient depth in the HIStory:_Past,_Present_and_Future,_Book_I article. The article is also poorly written, and only about half the text needs to be there at all. See WP:OVERLAP: If a page is very short and is unlikely to be expanded within a reasonable amount of time, it often makes sense to merge it with a page on a broader topic. For example, parents or children of a celebrity who are otherwise unremarkable are generally covered in a section of the article on the celebrity (and can be merged there) Popcornduff (talk) 11:51, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Also, Akhiljaxxn, it would be great if you'd use an edit summary when you revert. It says right there when you click Undo: "If you are undoing an edit that is not vandalism, explain the reason in the edit summary." Popcornduff (talk) 11:54, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

Hey sorry for not using the edit summary. Please see WP:ASZ. There is sufficient significant independent coverage in multiple sources to indicate GNG. The current size of an article is utterly irrelevant when considering whether a subject is notable. Marrying this article and then expanding the section to cover all of it would lead to excessive focus on this topic. Akhiljaxxn (talk) 12:11, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

I don't think there's scope for expanding the article. Popcornduff (talk) 12:15, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

I've rewritten this to remove unnecessary crap and bad sources. I did incorporate notable information where I found it, such as the Spin response and the Vegas casino. However, as I predicted, the article is now even shorter. Popcornduff (talk) 12:59, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
