This article appears to be a violation of WP:NOTADVERT. The article creator, Fatima.Innovative has been involved in a UPE sockfarm, according to thier Sockpuppets Investigation archives. The awards present do not appear to be significant enough for WP:ANYBIO nor WP:NJOURNALIST. The sources also appear to easily fail WP:NBASIC and I cannot find sources online that indicate that this criteria is passed. Therefore, I believe the page should be deleted. — Mhawk10 (talk) 23:01, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment we should demand better from paid editors than this. The Mirror Awards are actually a thing, and based on his resume I would not be surprised if there was enough coverage to justify an article. On the other hand, what we have here doesn't show it.

Delete – this is basically a CV, with almost all sources being primary. I agree that he might be notable, but the article only shows a competent journalist doing his job. --bonadea contributions talk 10:02, 10 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
