I'm not seeing how this article meets the criteria of WP:GNG or WP:BIO. The sources do not discuss him significantly, and the one that does just seems like a press release that is published in a hip-hop magazine for some reason. ... discospinster _talk 20:11, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep meets both WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. Has significant contribution towards development of D-4F drug. Freoanlsji (talk) 19:07, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Sourcing consists of puff pieces in local news and press releases, and don't look to meet GNG. (It doesn't help that some of the sourcing seems to confuse the subject with their brother.) No sign of WP:NPROF or other special criteria -- the very early career awards don't contribute. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 10:18, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, mainly per Russ Woodroofe. With the articles about dentists one has to be particularly careful and skeptical reagrding various awards and honors, and the ones mentioned here don't appear to be significant. Nsk92 (talk) 11:13, 30 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
