Pete Williams (entrepreneur)[edit]

Promotional and non-notable. Of his 4 books, the one most widely held is in only 32 libraries a/c/ worldcat, despite being published by a major publisher. The others are self published by his own company. His awards are minor--regional only, and none of them first place. He owns no notable company, nor is he ceo of any,nor has he started any.

Despite what the lede says, he did not sell the MCC for $500. According to the text of the article and the references, what he sold was pieces of its old removed carpeting.

The refs, as expected, are straight PR. We don't have to add to that., DGG ( talk ) 20:45, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom; torn down or renovated stadiums sell off old infrastructure all the time through their teams; the only difference here was MCG licensed this guy to sell it rather than going direct. Anyone could do that. Nate • (chatter) 15:46, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
