The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was unanimous consensus to delete, with the two new accounts who !voted keep—both since WP:CHECKUSER blocked—excluded from this evaluation. The agreement is that the article fails to meet various components of the WP:NOTABILITY guideline, with WP:PROMO alongside WP:COI / WP:PAID likely serving as aggravating factors. Thank you.

Non-notable person. All sources are either unreliable or PR, and I found no reliable sources online. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 05:45, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: Weird. I had had this article speedily deleted on grounds of sloppy referencing, non-notability (a regular bureaucrat who happened to born into someone's family) and possible COI by its author. Resubmitting as these grounds still stand. Borgenland (talk) 16:12, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete; the only mentions of his supposed sultancy come from facebook and similar sites; don't see anything else that would establish notability. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 06:54, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Fails WP:GNG. The only news article I can find for this person was back when they were indicted by the Ombudsman.[1] AstrooKai (Talk) 14:05, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; seems notable enough for a doctor; was mentioned in two Philippine government news as a chief of hospital together with parliament leaders. [2][3] Cinemyr Films 23:12, 5 December 2024 (UTC) — Cinemyr Films (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

  Those are not enough to establish notability as they are plainly a trivial mention of the subject (Lomandong was only included because he expressed his appreciation to the donation), which fails WP:SIGCOV.

  It would be better if those articles gave at least a brief background about Lomandong himself. AstrooKai (Talk) 15:24, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:13, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep; In the official APO-Beta Epsilon 50th Golden Anniversary Book containing the acknowledgement and messages from Provincial Governor of Lanao del Sur Mamintal Alonto Adiong Jr., Congressman Yasser Balindong, Congressman Zia Alonto Adiong, and the organization presidents, the fraternal greetings of Dr. Lomandong is printed alongside them, containing his info background, occupations, and current positions including being sultan and regional director; marks notability. Slide 38-39 for his reference. [4] Rex 97Cavaliers 09:26, 6 December 2024 (UTC) — Rex 97Cavaliers (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

  A promotional fratbook and a bunch of WP:ROUTINE greetings does not establish WP:SIGCOV. Further I suggest both of you two newborn and dormant Keepers come clean if you have any WP:COI. Borgenland (talk) 09:31, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I agree. Besides COI, I'm starting to think whether they're sockpuppets or not, since Cinemyr is a very new account whose first edit was voting in this AfD (the user also failed WP:USERNAME) and Rey who seems to be a sleeper (since their last edit before this AfD was back in 2017). AstrooKai (Talk) 10:08, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Update: The two Keep here and the creator of the article in question have been blocked for sockpuppetry. Borgenland (talk) 18:05, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Good to know, thanks for the notice. AstrooKai (Talk) 05:19, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• I’m not voting because I have a possible conflict of interest; it appears that I know one of his many relatives, Princess Potri Ranka Manis, who I just saw last night (to shamelessly name drop). I do want to clarify the facts. The family isn’t royal in the sense of sovereignty like King Charles III; they are more like his German third cousins who are deposed monarchs with regular jobs in medicine and nursing.

• Delete per above. Also reference 5 is questionable at best. --Lenticel ^(talk) 02:28, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
