Advert masquerading as an article. Article fails WP:BIO. Most references are generic or profile and the article has very little in the way of third party sources. Seems to be an advert for a single individual of no remarkibility. scope_creep (talk) 21:37, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I do not recommend to delete! Sure there can be mistakes in this article, but I ensure, that I have posted the sources properly and also the translation from the german article is correct. -- The Seraph life from Germany (DISCU/EDITS/MAIL) 04:53, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
 * What I have to do, that the article doesn't sound like "advertising"? What information is needed to confirm its importance on the English Wikipedia-site? I enclose you the article of the now well known German moderator Kai Pflaume, whose importance is similar with Thomas Aigner as moderator []. I think, that both articles meet the criteria of keeping them in the Wikipedia. -- The Seraph life from Germany (DISCU/EDITS/MAIL) 14:13, 15 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep (Subject to rewrite) – I agree that the article contains a great deal of seemingly promotional content which needs to be removed. However, the subject clearly meets WP:ENT. He has presented four mainstream shows on national television. — Fly by Night  ( talk )  18:05, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Lacks non-inherited notability. Current article is publicity (WP:SPIP) with only (possibly) one good, reliable source (welt.de)—the rest of the refs are self-published or not relevant to proving BLP facts. WP:ENT is a guideline—there's no conclusive proof that this person passes the GNG or has had a particularly notable contribution to the entertainment arts. czar   &middot;   &middot;  05:48, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
