Delete. Article history shows that article was created by the subject, presumably to promote links to their own websites. This is a BLP with no sources whatsover and notability has not been established. Yworo (talk) 18:55, 25 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Questions: Did you use the template find before creating this Afd ? It seems that some sources exist. Are they too weak ? Did you read them ? --Crazy runner (talk) 00:14, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Questions: Did you read the portugues page ? Can the sources on the portugues page be used to prove notability ? Are they too weak ? --Crazy runner (talk) 00:21, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Really, as far as I can tell, the sources only confirm that he is an illustrator for Marvel. There does not seem to be any other biographical information. We don't write biographies for individuals who have not become notable enough to have a significant amount of biographical data. In any case, the article was written by the subject himself. It would be better to start fresh if and when there is enough biographical data to write a proper biographical article that says something other than "Subject is an illustrator for Marvel". Employees are rarely notable. Finally, this is a WP:BLP, and current policy is that unsourced BLPs should be deleted. I don't read Portuguese and most translators are crap anyway. In any case, it appears that the Portuguese article was also written by the subject, and at least some of the references are to press releases, which are not reliable sources. It's not my responsibility to do all that work for something that's clearly a vanity page. Do it yourself if you care. If not, it'll all get sorted out during the process of this AfD. Cheers.
