Created by single-purpose account Plasticwords (talk · contribs), possible conflict of interest. Notability per WP:NMG seems questionable. bender235 (talk) 18:19, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There is nothing wrong with a single purpose account creating an article as a significant percentage of our articles are created by such accounts. I could have been called a single purpose account at the time I finished my first article, as could many other prolific editors. This article asserts notability and includes references. I would defer to the opinion of a Latvian speaking editor regarding the quality of the references and the availability of additional references. Cullen328 (talk) 19:06, 11 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep - there seems to be just about enough coverage in reliable sources for notability, though this is a borderline case. I would note that 'never heard of him', above, is a poor argument for deletion - what matters is whether the sources exist. Robofish (talk) 01:35, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
