Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established.

Comment: Does not meet the WP:GNG as the subject of in-depth secondary coverage, nor WP:NACADEMIC or WP:NAUTHOR. Does not address the concerns raised in previous AfD, see WP:Articles for deletion/Claudiu Popa (2nd nomination). Inappropriate WP:External links have not addressed previous reviewers concerns about WP:PROMO concerns. microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 20:30, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
