A weakly-sourced advertisement that REEKS of undeclared conflict editing. KJP1 (talk) 22:31, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment - I've reverted the unsourced promo added yesterday. KJP1, is your deletion rationale only about the tone? That was easily fixed. The Mighty Glen (talk) 04:54, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. the sources that are reliable are not about him, but the company or the product. The ones that are about him are press releases.  DGG ( talk ) 05:45, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - You've certainly made it less objectionable, by the removal of the promotional crud, but I'm not seeing Notability myself. But others may take a different view. As an aside, I think it highly likely the originator, and the expander, have undeclared Conflicts. KJP1 (talk) 05:55, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - not independently notable of the company per WP:BIO, and I can't find significant coverage online in WP:RS. The Mighty Glen (talk) 06:50, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - The main contributor, who's obviously very keen to keep it (still no COI declaration) has been refbombing the article. But with what? Take 26 and 27, about his mother. 26 is a Google translate page which appears to give nothing but her address. 27 is her company and I can't see her even mentioned. Or 15/29/30/31/32/33/50/53. These "8" sources are the same, primary, non-independent, interview, with tough questions like "We’d love to hear more about your business". I suspect many others will be similarly weak, if one could be bothered to check all 59, and rising. KJP1 (talk) 04:54, 1 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - I don't see how this person is notable, and having a COI makes me suspicious. Making lots of money, short of being a billionare, is just insufficient to pass as generally notable. There are insignificant secondary source coverage about this person, even if his parents and companies were notable. For what it's worth, my sister's in-laws are from Sweden, home to the subject.

 * Delete - Was very promo'y and doesn't appear to pass WP:GNG. --  Dane talk  02:26, 7 June 2018 (UTC)
