  • Delete The claim of being featured in a BBC documentary looks significant at first glance, but after looking into it he's one of several who appeared in a multi-part TV series. The article is also extremely promotional, with several paragraphs reading like some sort of personal sales brochure, with sentences like, "His touching story is enough to bring back the dead dreams of an average student." and worse.

The fact that an article is poorly written is usually not a valid reason for deletion, especially if the subject of the article is notable like this one. In addition, the maintenance tags such as {{multiple issues}} exist for reasons and could probably be used in any of these cases. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 09:31, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
