This article has already been nominated and speedily deleted before; see here. Barron is not notable in his own right. His two older sisters are frequently covered in news articles and media, but him and Conrad are still young and haven't done much. Also, keep in mind that Conrad's article was deleted last week. ★Dasani★ 19:12, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. The previous AfD (June 2006) on this article can be found here. This New York Post article is coverage that he has received in his own right. -- Eastmain (talk) 00:24, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - press coverage allows us to keep pages but doesn't mean that we must. This guy has done nothing, achieved nothing and doesn't even have significant notoriety. The coverage is trivial about trivial events. We need to apply common-sense as well as notability guidelines. TerriersFan (talk) 14:22, 11 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I agree with TF, common sense is necessary. All the coverage appears to boil to down to two things: 1. He's Paris Hilton's younger brother 2. He's been involved with law enforcement a couple of times, once as a victim, once as the offending party. This is not the stuff of encyclopedic notability, rather, the former basis runs afoul of WP:NOTINHERITED while the latter violates WP:BIO1E.
