Non-notable topic, the phrase "Charles D'Aprix" gets just over 100 results on Alexa and about 1000 results on Google. Also, every article edit made by this article's creator, Dohertydot (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), has done nothing but advertise whoever this person is.

- Delete per WP:V. Something very odd on the google search. Standard search gets 1,000 hits, 12 unique ([1]). When you click on "repeat the search with the omitted results included" ([2])it only gets 29, and 10 of them are Wikipedia, while 6 are genealogy entries. Of the remaining 13, I don't find a single, solitary entry in any news source, or anything that could be remotely considered a Reliable Source. This looks like astroturfing.
