This person doesn't appear to meet the criteria for inclusion in WP:BIO and WP:WINEMAKER. Seems to have local coverage only. Competition seems to be a non-notable event with local entries rather than international. This seems like a memorial article; see the policy WP:NOTMEMORIAL. Prod was removed by the author without explanation. ~Amatulić (talk) 22:21, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE. The PROD clearly should have been respected, there's no attempt at meeting WP:BIO. tedder (talk) 23:46, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete there seems to be nothing redeeming about this article. Copyvio of awful POV writing on an insufficiently notable subject. Unless actual decent sources appear there is no cause to keep. MURGH ^talk 21:36, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
