WP:SPIP JohnMarkOckerbloom (talk) 20:32, 9 February 2017 (UTC) This looks to be a self-promotional article that tried to sneak past the radar by overwriting an existing page (Viña del Mar Open) instead of creating a new one. Except for some minor recent copy-editing, the text that took it over has only one editor (User:Wimhyn), whose only contribution in main-space appears to be this article, on the day it took over the old article. The references all appear to be to promotional sites-- either PR news release sites that anyone can post to, or company sites controlled by the subject of the article-- and the facts (like the author's supposed $1.25 billion net worth) not verifiable. The book prominently mentioned in the article ("Conquering thy death") cannot be found in WorldCat or the Library of Congress. (This is my first AfD request; please excuse any formatting irregularities.) JohnMarkOckerbloom (talk) 20:46, 9 February 2017 (UTC)
