Article was previously deleted via AFD, but it has been recreated 3 or 4 times since then. Each recreation beofre this was followed by a speedy delete. It seems like a good idea to bring this to AfD again and I would recommend salting the article if this AFD results in a delete decision. This is an autobiography about someone who claims to have won numerous amateur (IFMA) titles. However, WP:KICK specifies that amateur titles alone do not show notability. His second place WAKO finish was out of only two competitors (and it's also amateur). The main source is slipchenko.com which is certainly not independent. Other links are to organizational websites that don't actually mention him. He fails to meet WP:KICK or WP:GNG.Mdtemp (talk) 17:03, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
