Unsourced article on subject who was an unsuccessful contestant on Canadian Idol and Pinoy Pop Star. The article, written somewhat in non-NPOV tones by Big2entertainment, describes him as "musician, composer, actor, independent film director and producer". Initially I could only find mention of his TV appearances for the above 2 shows, and all trivial at that. Prod once, removed by User:Badlydrawnjeff with comment "Doesn't appear to be vanity, finalist in two reality shows". I beg to disagree. The article is vanity by any other name: he has only produced his own films and posted then to Youtube - a search of which would clearly show that Big2entertainment is none other than the subject himself. 27 unique Ghits, most from Wiki mirrors. One entry in imdb. Subject fails WP:BIO, WP:COI, WP:RS, WP:V. I move to delete. Ohconfucius 02:02, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Notwithstanding the COI issues, being in the top 32 on Canadian Idol is not notability. As for Pinoy Idol it does not say how far he went, and being that this is a subject created page I can't imagine that it was too far. --Daniel J. Leivick 02:08, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
