The result was redirect to International Delphic Council. Consensus exists that there is a lack of notability, ATD prefers redirect to delete, no arguments advanced against the redirect and one advanced toward it. j⚛e deckertalk 15:21, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

While this person might have enough notability to keep an article that actually cited proper reliable source coverage, as written this article is entirely unsourced. In addition, it warrants mention that the article was created by User:Delphico, and is therefore a likely conflict of interest if you compare that username to the topic's primary claim of notability. As always, I'm more than willing to withdraw this if good sourcing shows up before close, but he's not entitled to keep a BLP, especially one that he wrote himself, on Wikipedia in an unreferenced state.

- Delete. I've added a reference, because we actually do not allow unreferenced articles on living people. However, the only independent sources I have been able to find are passing mentions: the one I added, plus as further examples [1], [2], [3] - plus, if he moonlights as a nightclub owner, [4], which is also only a passing mention.

- Redirect to International Delphic Council, his claim to fame. He himself lacks substantial coverage by independent reliable sources. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 00:04, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
