Lack of notability: mentioned in a few news-of-the-weird books, no news articles on him. PROD tried, but new user removed. Bromley86 (talk) 00:02, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Micronation which mentions him; he does not appear to quite meet WP:GNG although he gets some coverage in the Lonely Planet Micronations book[1]. As well as the Lonely Planet source, he occurs as a sentence or paragraph in some list-type sources about micronations so putting him in a list seems fitting. Writing a book about yourself does not provide notability unless the book is widely reviewed (which it doesn't seem to be). Obviously, if more, in-depth sources are forthcoming, it could be kept. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:58, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Micronation per Colapeninsula. Not enough sources to support an independent BLP, but a useful redirect to existing information in an appropriate article. A Train^talk 08:00, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
