Although this article passes NTENNIS, it completely fails GNG (which cannot be superseded by SNG) as it has no citations at all. A search on the web shows that there are no secondary sources about him, so there are no spaces for improvement. Timothytyy (talk) 10:06, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

- @Wolbo I couldn't access all the newly-added citations. All of them were local newspapers. So yeah, I agree, my claim "there are no secondary sources about him" is incorrect after all, just because I couldn't find them online. Timothytyy (talk) 11:46, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
- Then perhaps what you should be doing is adding a template that we need more sources rather than frivolous deletion requests. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:24, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
