[edit] Dimitris Potiropoulos

Delete - the assertion of notability involves prizes and distinctions won in architectural competitions of unknown importance and contributions to subparts of larger architectural projects. The article seems by its nature promotional and would have to be totally rewritten to achieve a neutral tone.

I am also nominating the following related page for the same reason:

  • Delete both - per nom. Has the tell-tales of vanity. Greswik (talk) 18:17, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep for now -- I checked Google News archives and Google Scholar, coming up empty with both. Nevertheless, these buildings look like important commissions and I suspect this guy is notable, notwithstanding the COI issue. I've added this to both the Greece and architecture deletion sorts -- perhaps someone knowledgeable of Greece and/or architecture will join in. The Greek Wikipedia article, el:Δημήτρης Ποτηρόπουλος, appears similar and was also edited by a new, single purpose editor, Whiplash. --A. B. (talk) 20:28, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep - References establish notability, for both articles. An article needing to be rewritten is not a reason for deletion; it's a reason to rewrite, which any editor can do. --Lquilter (talk) 21:01, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
