Hmmm Wildly over-written, and under-referenced (probably by a PR person), I suspect he might actually be notable, if we had the refs. Johnbod (talk) 18:25, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnbod: I followed BEFORE but unfortunately was not able to find much coverage in RS on the subject. There is coverage on his project but nothing in-depth on him. Two accounts are obviously related to the subject; User:Syedmanzar and User:Axissoftmedia (blocked). --Saqib (talk) 06:25, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as non-notable and promotional. MT Train^Discuss 10:03, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This would need a full rewrite to remove the promotional tone and the copyright violations. It includes the full text of this Wordpress post from 2009 (article started in 2011). I'll start ripping out vios. Even if he is notable, this needs a stick of WP:TNT. Mortee (talk) 19:39, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
