José Manuel Silveira

I have listed this for "proposed deletion" twice before, but the original author has removed the ProD tag each time. This is a BLP that does not make a claim to notability and, of the 10 refrences, only 1 actually mentions the subject - which is a link to his twitter account (with 10 followers). All the other references link to the website of companies he has worked with/for. Therefore, this in my mind, is an unreferenced and non-notable BLP. Wittylama 07:08, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Note: For the third time now, the author of that article has removed the deletion notice template without comment (diff). I have restored it. Wittylama 10:48, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
 * A couple of minutes after I left this note, the author removed the tag again (diff). Cyberbot restored it soon after and warned the user on their talkpage. This too was reverted (diff). I have restored the template AGAIN and left a message on the user's talkpage, but I suspect that the user will remove it... Wittylama 12:11, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Yep - the deletion tag was removed again, replaced by the bot, and removed again... The bot has now placed a level3 warning on the user's talkpage and restored the deletion template. Wittylama 16:18, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete and salt. Nominator makes a clear case. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:15, 1 October 2013 (UTC).

Note: The original editor has now been blocked temporarily for edit warring and it looks suspiciously like they've created a sock account to simply produce the same article under a new name: José Manuel Silveira (Entrepreneur) created by User:DEEC294 - whose only edits are to this article.

 * I blocked the obvious sock. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:36, 1 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete For the same reasons I gave in the PROD to the second copy: This is a CV written to appear impressive but thoroughly fails WP:BIO. I've redirected the duplicate article to the one covered by the AFD, when it closes it can be nuked as a G8. § FreeRangeFrog croak 04:12, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
 * I didn't see any good reason for keeping it around that long (regardless of the outcome of this AfD) so I deleted it early, as an A10. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:34, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of evidence of passing WP:GNG. Google news archive has a few hits for this name but they're obviously multiple people — one is José Manuel Silveira Lopes (a historian), another José Manuel Silveira Lorenzo (a young murder victim). I don't think either of these is the same as the subject, and the articles I found don't give enough detail to pass WP:GNG for their subjects either. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:36, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
