User:Ankur The Mystery Boy


Self-promotional user page posing as an article (WP:FAKEARTICLE); user has shown no interest in contributing the the encyclopedia elsewhere. Fut.Perf. ☼ 06:41, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - I'm inclined to WP:BRD move/copy the page to mainspace, and then directly AFD list it. My reason is that - unusually - there seems to be some non-trivial WP:RS coverage (not much, but some) in the "cites", including BBC and Forbes India. While it's mostly a promotional page (and has no place in userspace), it's not 100% junk cites like most WP:FAKEARTICLES. It's a long standing mainspace principle that we consider whether a page is valid and its topic notable, not just whether it was promotionally motivated, when we consider deletion. I'd like eyeballs on whether it's actually a viable article that could be well-cited, and whether the subject is notable based on WP:RS, rather than just if it's a WP:MFD promotional userpage.
