Punchline is "unsalvageable promotional content". I see nothing other than self-promoting, probably paid, editing throughout the article history. There is very little that can be saved and I think it is better off deleted. MarcGarver (talk) 16:22, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete I find references to this Masters thing in various obituaries, news pieces and the like, but always in regards to another person (Mr. XYZ who was a Cape Wine Master, did xyz thing). Regardless, there is no extensive coverage and this is PROMO with flowery language. Oaktree b (talk) 19:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

 * It should have been deleted then... I am astonished that something with no references, no apparent notability and so promotional has managed 15 years of life. MarcGarver (talk) 12:08, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
