  • Comment: This reads like a promotional page for the subject. A large chunk of it is about his family and not the subject. Ktkvtsh (talk) 23:35, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Some key points:
    1. His family does not make him nota le.
    2. Things like a wrestling letter are not notable.
    3. That the company has raised funds does not make him notable. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:09, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
