Matthias Manasi

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Autobiographical self-promotional article written entirely by SPAs (who are all clearly socks/meats of each other; listed below). has gamely given it a massive cleanup, but it still doesn't have any notability, even with her searching for more info. Fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO; the only significant coverage seems to be five sentences here:. (The Nickel City Opera bio is not at all reliable or independent.) See also discussion here: WT:WikiProject Opera.


 * Added article Matthias Daniel Manasi to the list of articles to be included in the AfD. It was created by one of the alleged Socks listed below. red dogsix (talk) 03:11, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
 * This new one should be speedily deleted per WP:A10 (recently created duplicate of an existing topic). The text is identical to this version of Matthias Manasi. Voceditenore (talk) 06:16, 30 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete I have been unable, despite extensive searches, to find a single article about this German conductor/pianist or a single review of his work. Note that the link cited above with the five sentences about him is not an independent source. It is a blurb on the website of the orchestra for whom he was conducting part of a concert. The subject fails WP:GNG and also fails the alternative criteria at WP:MUSICBIO. There is no significant recording career. The one listed in the article (where he plays the harpsichord on an opera recording, but was not the conductor), is the only one I could find. He has won no prizes (significant or otherwise).

 * Note to closing admin: Given the absurd persistence of the COI SPA sockfarm, both article titles should probably be salted if this AfD results in deletion. Softlavender (talk) 07:41, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I concur on the salting. Note also that given the latest shenanigans, I have started an SPI. See Sockpuppet investigations/ArtistForum. Voceditenore (talk) 08:41, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
