The result was keep. Regardless of COI, experienced (and non-ip) editors here all have consensus for a keep. (non-admin closure) TLA (talk) 03:36, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a young man who made the papers in 2018 and started an organization--but none of the info on either rises to the level of notability by our standards. Also, the article was written up by one of the many, many socks of Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Factsonlyplease39/Archive, Best Known For writing up truly awful and poorly verified biographies.

- Speedy delete Poor quality article and he doesn't seem noteworthy. I tried to make it less like advertising, but somehow that has been undone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RobinJames68 (talk • contribs) 23:28, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - it sounds like there is a rush to judgment on the basis of the creator's bad record, but this article seems to meet WP:N - this kid has been written up in the NYT and other high-profile national / regional media. Llajwa (talk) 17:05, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - regardless if a sock-puppet or paid editor created an article, I think if a person is in fact notable based on significant coverage in reliable sources, then it should be kept. Bearian (talk) 14:43, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment My vote to speedy delete was deemed invalid, because other editors have contributed to the article since it was created by a sockpuppet. I'd still vote for deletion based on WP:NOTNEWS. The subject briefly enjoyed coverage for one endeavor, but doesn't meet enduring notability standards. (This is a derivation of my previous opinion, not an attempt to enter a second vote). 2601:19E:4180:6D50:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 00:50, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep: Christian Science Monitor and the NY Times are good articles, rest help notability. Oaktree b (talk) 16:36, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: per others. I also note the coverage about him is over a period of years so not churnalism. S0091 (talk) 17:34, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
