WP:BLP of an organizational founder, not properly referenced as passing our notability criteria for organizational founders. The article essentially just states that he and the organization exist, and is referenced to one primary source that isn't support for notability and one source that tangentially verifies the existence of the organization without mentioning this person's name at all -- and then there's a contextless linkfarm of excessive "external links" that includes repeats of the same two links, more primary sources, and some sources that briefly namecheck the subject's existence without being about him in any non-trivial sense, none of which is contributing to getting him over WP:GNG. As always, people are not "inherently" entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to be shown to have third party coverage in reliable sources that analyzes the significance of their work, but nothing like that is being shown here at all.
