After many years since its inception by a sock-using account I finally decided to put this article for deletion. It fails WP:ENT, since none of the three notability indicators of ENT are satisfied. The sources used in the article are low-quality and they do not demonstrate any lasting notability of contributions for the subject. The self-promoting article was created by now blocked account MrEditor88 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), probably the subject of the article himself. The self-promotion included edits such as creating lists of famous Cypriots just to include himself on the list. Just see this version. Similar edits were made to List of Cypriots and List of Nigerians where he actually edit-warred to add himself: List of Nigerians 1 and List of Nigerians 2. The blocked account edit-warred to remove maintenance tags to the self-bio and caused other disruption. Just see their talkpage history. His draft submission was declined, and he also worked in the sandbox of the named, perhaps meat account johntheodoreedevu ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Also, several of the dubious sources contain self-promoting interviews with the subject himself. Please see also Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/MrEditor88/Archive.

- Delete per nom. The subject fails WP:GNG. The references in the article are not reliable. A Google search of him doesn't show him being discussed in reliable sources. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 00:54, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
