1. Gbenga Adigun: nominated at AfD; notified Calyx2s (talk · contribs) 15:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Delete, the subject clearly fails minimum notability requirement. Article having a bunch of sponsored press releases masked as independent coverage of the subject. The first references from the Sun (Nigeria) is a clear sponsored post and that is evident in the headline and the body of the article presents a clear indication of PR puffery. The Second source from PM News clearly mirrors Wikipedia structure. The handler possibly used that to prove notability and game the system, and maybe a deeper check of the editor who created the page will reveal something. There are about three different articles from Daily Times (Nigeria), while one mirrors Wikipedia style and structure, the tone is clearly PR puffery, the other two articles from same source are on obscure awards. The reference number 8 from the sun is the subject’s own writeup. Source number 12 from Independent is a single mention of the subject. Almost all other sources bear resemblance of PR puffery
2. JOM Charity Award: nominated at AfD; notified Calyx2s (talk · contribs) 15:48, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Delete, non notable Award. Sources number 2 and 3 are same PR puffery published within a month of each other and the contents bear striking similarity and that cannot be taken as a coincidence. Source number 4 from The Sun (Nigeria) is a press release from the JOM Award itself but masked as a news story. Source number 5 from Vanguard (Nigeria) is very similar to sources number 2 and 3 in headlines and in the body and tone of the writing. The headline of the source number 5 says the JOM Award is one of the top 5 charity organisations in the UK but no single UK media outlet is cited in the article – a PR puffery at its best. All other sources cited are similar and unreliable due to their PR puffery
3. Tony Edeh: nominated at AfD; notified Oyindebrah (talk · contribs) 16:30, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
   • Reason: Delete, article standing largely on non-existent and primary sources. Of the eight sources in the article, two are primary sources from the awards received by the subject while three sources (number 6- TheCable, 7-Sahara Reporters, and 8- Premium Times) are about an unrelated Tony Edeh (The Chairman, Eha-Amufu and Fulani Communities Peace and Reconciliation Committee) according to the sources 6, 7, and 8, reviewed. Supposing the Tony Edeh mentioned in those three articles are the subject of this article, he still falls below notability guidelines because he received only passing mentions. The only source that tends to count towards notability is the one from the Guardian (Nigeria) but that is not enough to establish minimum notability.
