Paid editing puff piece. Sources are inadequate: 1. No byline, not an RS, govt website. 2. 1 mention does not meet rs or gng 3. Not about him but an attempt by his foundation to break a record 4. I can't get 4 to open 5. Mention. Not about subject. A single line. No byline. Not clear RS and reads like a press release 6. Link goes to main page so no detail of subject 7. Report of a press conference. No evidence of independent commentary so cannot count to rs 8. Reprinted press release with absolutely no effort to pretend its an independent article. No bio data.

So a BLP that is entirely devoid of meaningful sources containing biographic data. A paid for article full of puffery is nowhere near the standard we require. Spartaz Humbug! 17:24, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete- per Nom, sources aren't reliable, and mere mention to some other topic on RS won't make it pass GNG. Dtt1Talk 15:37, 5 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
