Ofer Mizrahi[edit]

Promotional article not adhering to WP:NPOV. The businesses started by the subject have reached notability (sourced in article), but role of artist himself is not clear and it is hard to assess his notability. Ariadacapo (talk) 12:25, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

~~keep~~Weak Delete. ~~Clearly notable after BEFORE, while filtering out other ofer mizrahies (very common Israeli name)~~. He is the main driving force, public face and operator of the companies he founded. ~~Plenty of coverage and some awards.~~ The article itself is indeed poorly written, is an advert, and doesn't even mention clear negatives such as a chapter 11.Icewhiz (talk) 20:10, 21 March 2017 (UTC)changed:Icewhiz (talk) 16:19, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I can trim the promotional and non-neutral content from the article, but I know nothing about the topic. If I clean up and someone (you?) gives the article some balance, maybe we can keep it? Ariadacapo (talk) 00:45, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing that searching for dirt on his chapter-11 - leads only to this (in google news) - [1] with no coverage on how he emerged from this - I've changed my mind - if he was notable, this episode should've received much more coverage.Icewhiz (talk) 16:19, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Should have been speedily deleted as WP:G11. There is nothing in the article that can be kept if the promotional content is removed. Yes, it's a bit odd that the Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection isn't mentioned, but not surprising, since this is an advert. Since when do we refer to people as 'real estate visonary'? Yuck.

Speedy delete this is the most blatantly promotional article I have seen on Wikipedia. I literally felt like vomiting when I read it. Once the promotional garbage about the floor-covering business is removed, nothing is left, so speedy delete. No notability whatsoever. How did this end up here?198.58.162.200 (talk) 06:13, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Update I took a chainsaw to the promotional garbage that this article was built on. What's left is very unconvincing as to notability. A few refs with passing mentions.198.58.162.200 (talk) 06:24, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No real evidence of notability. Hell, even that portrait is obviously promotional. --Calton | Talk 15:54, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not notable - self-promotion as per above. Netherzone (talk) 01:35, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete a local real estate developer. It is telling that he is included in an article on what "small firms" are doing by the Wall Street Journal. He is a small time operator and no indication that he is notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 22:19, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Agree with above reasoning. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 17:37, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
