Promotional, not biographical[edit]

The article consists of a curriculum vitae, suitable for inclusion with job applications. It is not a biographical article worthy of an encyclopaedia.

There is nothing on background, upbringing, schooling, parents, siblings. There is nothing on spouse(s), partner(s), children. There is nothing on where he lives and lived. Nothing on any interests beyond his cv.

Without such information this article is using Wikipedia as a free source of publicity. Is this the aim of Wikipedia? Or does it aspire to be an actual encyclopaedia? 86.184.212.55 (talk) 01:35, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
