NN 22-year-old subject of this article suddenly has two new editors (confirmed as sock and puppet) and a new IP trying to make an article for him. Epeefleche (talk) 07:48, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

- Delete: As presently written and sourced, I'm not convinced that this is a notable figure. Most of the references used are tangential, and only establish that the various projects that the subject is involved in, exist. The other sources appear to comprise reprinted bios, speaking schedules, etc. There were also two links that I had to tag as dead, since they didn't resolve anywhere. The one article that appears to be present significant coverage of the subject is this one, but it looks an awful lot like a local news story about a minor student project or something. (For anyone else looking into this, I believe the subject's last name translates to "theoretical", as that word keeps coming up in the machine translations.) Due diligence performed per WP:BEFORE#D.1 turns up no significant results at Google Books or Google News. Contributors are advised to review WP:BIO. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:36, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

- Thanks for your kind response. Can you please watch the 3 official TV interviews? as they discussed the subject clearly, and whatever was written in the article are facts and verifiable from different sources. I don't know what other sources or content to edit to avoid delete? shell I ask for certificates copy or something? because we gathered all the information, and compare to many articles here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UAE_Nationals
- Please I seek your support and help to what to edit or provide more? this is my first wikipedia article
- Feel free to edit anything in the text to make it better

- Hi Trendae, Firstly, none of the video links are working for me. I've had to tag the interviews as dead links. Secondly, interviews aren't going to do much to establish the subject's notability, since Wikipedia is interested in secondary sources, and an interview is typically considered a primary source. We're looking for references that speak ABOUT the subject, without being related to the subject. If the subject is working with TED, then we wouldn't use TED's website as a source for objective coverage of the subject. I'm a little unclear as to why, if you had been working on your first article through the articles for creation process here, your friends decided to jump the gun and submit the same incomplete article in live space.
