Found while clearing out CAT:CSD. Deletion reason was -- {{g11}}. This is not a valid speedy deletion reason, in this case. Looks like a real inventor. albeit not well known. I don't think this stub is a speedy delete. There seems to be some sources on him vie Google. (some seem to be in french). Therefore I nominated this to afd. Opinions on what to do with this?

  • I'm not persuaded that he needs his own page. He's covered in the article Food Processor and I think a redirect there is all we need. -- Bpmullins | Talk 22:36, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect per Bpmullins. --Dhartung | Talk 22:44, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
  • I am convinced that this is motivated by commercial advertising. The author (Magimix man) has been very active linkspamming the Magimix site here, here, and here while spamming a distributor of Magimix and related equipment here. I admit that the article has grown up a bit since I db-spammed it, and it may be bordering on useful. I'll soften my stance and change my vote from a delete to a redirect. -- dpotter 01:38, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete - seems to be a copyvio from http://www.catering-machines.com/rcoupe_history.asp and WP:CSD G12 applies here. Angus McLellan (Talk) 14:26, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
