I'll admit this might be a hasty nomination, but this article is very poor quality and when I went to search for sources on Google News (the current sourcing is questionable, to put it lightly), I only found 2. These already insufficient sources fail WP:BLP1E, as far as I understand. I'm not familiar with BLP policy and frankly don't intend to be, but I didn't want to just template this article and move on.

- My goodness. I'll take this as a lesson to be much, much more thorough before nominating something at AfD. If you're willing I'd appreciate a link to a better venue get attention on articles like this; I'm about to withdraw this so leaving it on my talk page would be appreciated.
