Fails WP:GNG. Winning a game show tournament (even if it was the first) is not criteria that meets GNG. Contestants on Jeopardy! are rarely notable, usually only if they have set major records on the show, or they have transcended the show and become national news stories on their own. Frankel has done neither. Subject is included in List of Jeopardy! contestants, but that does not mean this subject individually meets GNG.
Google search of subject does not provide any reliable source that meets GNG, and adding the word "Jeopardy" to search does not provide any other evidence this person meets GNG.
Only references are links to iMDB (see WP:CITINGIMDB) and a Jeopardy fan site. AldezD ( talk) 21:19, 7 August 2014 (UTC)

- Redirect to List_of_Jeopardy!_contestants or Delete. I don't see any coverage at all. I was expecting to find a few trivial mentions scattered around, but not even the Google News Archive or Highbeam Research mention him. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 02:03, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
