Obvious autobiography, full of hoaxes including being the distant cousin of Matt Damon. Fails WP:BIO. Tbh®tch^Talk ^© Happy New Year 00:21, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, fails WP:BIO and WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 00:38, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:N, WP:V. Even the "internet celebrity" label is doubtful given the rather pitiful youtube view counts. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:39, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and above (WP:BIO, WP:N, WP:V). --みんな空の下 (トーク | I wanna chAngE!) 01:00, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Delete as above and I think a good case can be made for Speedy Delete as spam. Clearly promotional in nature. Safiel (talk) 01:41, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Don't Delete Has valid cause to stay, because it shows information on a person. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.124.68.122 (talk) 03:45, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- That's not the criteria here. Our criteria is whether WP:BIO is satisfied. Merely showing "information on a person" is an awfully low bar for notability. By that logic "Joe is an awesome guy" would qualify as an article. Zachlipton (talk) 03:52, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Straight up Wikipedia:Autobiography that is clearly promotional in nature. Not backed by reliable sources. Zachlipton (talk) 03:52, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per everyone else. Sumsum2010·T·C 05:31, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as a non-notable autobiography. BTW, where are the categories for this discussion? Erpert ^{Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it?} 08:33, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BIO, Autobio. I would have considered it as Speedy Delete for obvious self-serving spam, if not for the AfD. -- Alexf^(talk) 19:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No reliable sources. Wikipedia is not a medium for self-promotion. In fact I think speedy delete would not be unreasonable.JamesBWatson (talk) 15:10, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per everyone above, and Speedy Delete could also be considered. --DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 17:13, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

FYI: there appears to be a copy of the article at Yuki damon. Rjwilmsi 17:48, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom (and the copy at Yuki damon also, which I have now tagged to have the same fate as the article nominated here). bd2412 T 18:14, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
Delete. If I had caught this as a new article I would probably have put a CSD on it. I don't think it's a hoax but it's clearly an attempt at self-promotion of and by a very unnotable subject.--Kudpung (talk) 00:12, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't nominate it for CSD because it is obvious that some people believe he is notable, and those people recreate those article many time with many names, as a recent example is Yuki damon. Tbhotch^™ ^© Happy New Year 05:02, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
