Marco Scherbaum

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

I request the deletion of the Wikipedia article about Marco Scherbaum. Reasons: It is an obvious marketing article. The person concerned is an average businessman (insurance broker) with no regional nor national relevance. In addition, he advertises with fancy titles ("European Senator"), which derive from the membership of a private association (Europäischer Wirtschaftssenat e. V.), but may give the impression of being an official title/legit political position. By mentioning on Wikipedia, this impression becomes reinforced and, if necessary, legitimized. The German Wiki's article has already been deleted for these reasons.--BancoBank (talk) 10:41, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not 100% sure though, there's quite a few sources. Idk if they're WP:PRIMARY though, I'm guessing quite a few of them would be. Seems like a puff piece. There's not really any reasoning in the article as to why he is notable. Google shows up nothing that's a reliable source. If someone can give a summary of the German wiki deletion discussion, that would be useful. MarkiPoli (talk) 18:20, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
