I've been watching this new page for a while, unsure as to whether to nominate it for AfD from the page patrol get-go. It's mostly the constantly tinkered product of a single editor, who has been reverting changes to the page. That notwithstanding, Lennart fails WP:GNG on multiple counts - as a politician WP:NPOL, author WP:AUTHOR or coach. The ISBNs of his books return 404 errors down the line and being a consultant to a reality show and shut down YouTube channel doesn't even get us beyond WP:BASIC - let alone being a right wing, shouty consultant. With a heavy heart, I'm invoking AfD... Alexandermcnabb (talk) 16:20, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – I did some cleanup and then I looked for sources in major Swedish news media, finding very little. It is pretty much a case of BLP1E, where the only thing of note is the event in 2016 when he was going to appear in a brand-new reality TV show, and was exposed as having made some rather unpleasant racist and misogynist comments on Facebook (and made no attempt to deny or apologise for them, claiming that they were just jokes). As a result, he was not contracted for any future series, but as far as I can tell only five episodes were ever produced of that show. He does not meet WP:NPOL since he has never been elected to political office, and coverage of his alt-right activism does not rise to the level of WP:GNG. --bonadea contributions talk 12:06, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - not enough in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 03:13, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I couldn't find sufficient evidence of notability. Suonii180 (talk) 15:22, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
