Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael Jason Allen
A masterwork of promotional prose without a single wp:RS|reliable source, and a list of unreliable ones, about half of them IMDB, which is generally /IMDB#Questionable_resources|not considered a reliable source, and other sources, iTunes and the subject's own website, which are neither independent nor reliable for establishing notability. By definition, the subject of the article fails the wp:N|Wikipedia General Notability Guideline, which states: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list." The article subject also does not meet criteria in: Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals or Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Entertainers. If sufficient reliable and independent sources were found to justify keeping the article, it would still require a top-to-bottom rewrite to cleanse it of an egregiously promotional tone, which violates the fundamental Wikipedia principle: wp:NPOV|neutral point of view. The author of the article admits on this Discussion page that, "I have been close to his career for many years and have witnessed his accomplishments and personal facts from him personally," which, regrettably, is evidence of violation of another basic Wikipedia policy: wp:NOR|no original research, which is not a permissable substitute for reliable independent sources, because it can not be wp:V|verified by readers
