[edit] Massimo Ellul
Delete: Looks like a personal advert; irrelevant to wikipedia Maltesedog 11:41, 08 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Assuming that the facts stated are accurate, this person is notable. The article needs to have sources cited, and to be rewitten to read less like a personal resume or corporate profile. DES (talk) 14:42, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- Amend Unless amended as stated above, this article would have to be deleted Maltesedog 15:05, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- The tags that you are looking for are {{unreferenced}}, {{cleanup-verify}}, and {{POV check}}. Deletion is not the only tool in the toolbox. Uncle G 18:41:39, 2005-09-08 (UTC)
- Keep. Presuming he is published, prominent in a political party, and the other stuff, he's notable enough. Being badly written isn't in the reasons for deletion last time I looked. -Splash 17:52, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and WP:CITE sources for article content. Hall Monitor 18:18, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- Strong Keep Doing some quick searches for content that was not Wiki based shows that he is published and has done some of the things included in the article. --Terry 18:20, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and cleanup-verify. Seems to be notable enough in Malta see [1]. Capitalistroadster 23:31, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
- Even though it looks as though he's famous online, rest assured that in Malta he isn't. It is possible to add everyone in the SearchMalta Famous people website - in fact even I am listed (despite of being infamous) in Malta. 212.56.128.186 06:05, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
- Under what name are you listed in SearchMalta? Hall Monitor 16:12, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
- I replied to you privately. But SearchMalta famous people is not reliable, trust me, I used to work for sometime before wikipedia sending them info on Malta etc. Maltesedog 19:25, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. Where do some people live? Just yesterday, on the 8 o' clock news on ALL Maltese TV stations, there was aired a delegation which arrived to Malta, led by Sir Paul Judge, the Chairman of the British Chamber of Marketing and the Master of the Worshipful Company of Marketors of the City of London. The delegation had a business breakfast with 140 of the leading business people of Malta and was opened by Deputy Prime Minister Dr. Tonio Borg. Massimo Ellul was the only Maltese to be part of the marketing professionals forming part of the delegation of the Marketors! A simple check on the official ISBN listing of published and registered books would give you his latest publication, The Green Eight Pointed Cross, with ISBN number 99932-0-317-3, which is also available on the internet. I have added a number of references in the article. I do not think that the Dept of Information of the Prime Minister's Office, the Times of Malta, The Malta Business Weekly, and all the other references, including the Who's Who publications, have got it wrong. Being an expert in marketing does not make you popular as well! I just happened to catch this debate on Wikipedia because I am also reading an MBA with Maastricht University by the Malta Institute of Management. By the way, Dr. Ellul is also an acvtive member of the Institute!! Post-Graduate
- Keep but references are required. I have read the above, and reconsidered my position when it comes to this article. However, clear referencing is required in any case. I think the matter can be closed here. Maltesedog 12:12, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
