Yet another attempt to use Wikipedia as a SOAPBOX, this article was created by (now) blocked and locked socks that are part of a paid ring to use several WMF projects as a means for promotion (for more details see meta:Wikiproject:Antispam/Archives/2021/MF Press Global ). In the Portuguese Wikipedia, the article was deleted several times and then salted. Pretty much every single source in the article is non-reliable and/or paid.

Comment Mostly agree this is fluff, other than the Young Creators Award he won. It has an article, does it make him in any way notable? Media awards in Brazil, I'm not familiar with, at all. Oaktree b (talk) 20:17, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Oaktree b This is pretty much an internet popularity award created to promote people. In English, the Young Creators Award article was created by a sock which was also part of huge sock ring. Even in Portuguese, I don't think pt:Prêmio Jovem Brasileiro would survive a AfD. The sourcing is just awful. No reliable sources, no in-depth coverage.

Just Delete it then. An "actor" with one appearance in a youtube film isn't what we use for ACTOR, and the rest is spam as explained above. Oaktree b (talk) 20:35, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'll likely nominate that award article for deletion as well, I'll see what I can dig up first before doing so. Oaktree b (talk) 20:35, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The sources are terrible. Without good sources, you can't have significant coverage required for biographies of living persons. The apparent paid editing, which endangers our not-for-profit status, is icing on the cake. In 2007, this could have been excused. In 2023, this situation in untenable.
