advice
As reviewing administrator, I decidednot to delete the article. It needs some improvements, but it is not in any sense I can see promotional or advertising.

However, it would seem that your are likely to have a Conflict of Interest, and you must declare it according to our rules at WP:COI. When you revise the article, remember that WP is not a place for personal tributes. I would suggest removing all purely anecdotal material, and making sure everything else is referenced by a reliable source.  DGG ( talk ) 12:03, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
