Poorly-sourced promo piece on a non-notable writer (?). Sources cited are mostly a mix of articles written by himself, press releases and churnalism, none of which establishes notability. A search finds just the usual social media accounts etc. Earlier draftification was rejected by the author, and a speedy request was removed by a collaborator, so here we are. Fails WP:GNG / WP:AUTHOR. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:19, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete. I thought the award for Global Teaching Excellence may be notable, but it turns out that 294 people won that award, so it was clearly not as exclusive as I expected. No further sources found when I looked.Spiralwidget (talk) 12:33, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete not notable per WP:NAUTHOR nor per WP:GNG. I have read the sources pretty closely and agree with the nominator. --bonadea contributions talk 18:38, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable. All sources are primary/non-independent, and I couldn't find better ones. Furthermore, I also did some research on these "Global Teaching Excellence Awards", and all I could find were press releases plus their website, which is filled with stock images (a quick reverse image search brings up plenty of other shady "conferences" using the exact same images) and has little to no information other than a nomination fee-- which makes me think that these so-called awards are handed out to anyone who pays for them. Like a fake diploma. Either way, not notable. Blue Edits (talk) 08:18, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
