Joao Moises Benabides Dinis

This article does not pass basic WP:ANYBIO standards and all the information found on him emanates from this wikipedia page with no significant coverage of any kind elsewhere (I checked using all of the listed names). The page had a notability tag placed in 2014 but the article creator deleted the tag without any discussion in 2015. The 2 references included have nothing to do with the subject of the page and do not verify the subjects actual involvement with the groups the references are verifying. As well the work seems to be all Original Research. Acidskater (talk) 14:43, 7 February 2017 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete - I agree with the nominator and cannot find anything about Joao, John, or Juan Dinis, Dionis, or other possible surnames, or even his neighbor John Harlow on newspapers.com, or any of the usual places. The article states that he was 2nd cousin of Benjamin Musaphia and 3rd cousin of Menasseh Ben Israel, both of whom died a century before Dinis was born - not impossible but definitely odd. The article was written by a user with Harlow in the username, suggesting a COI, which I don't have a big problem with, but which does increase my skepticism when there is not much for sources.
