Most likely self-promotional biography, none of his occupations seem notable enough. The subject's nicknames, Mono and Ev, are the same as the author's username, ElMonoEv3. Google searches give minimal and unreliable results[1][2][3][4][5] (there's a musician of the same name, but he is also non-notable).[6] The Portuguese Wikipedia has no results for the subject either.[7] The majority of the subject's mentions on Wikipedia pages come from an unsourced addition of the article in the Template:Animal rights by an IP from Rio de Janeiro, where the subject comes from; both the IP and ElMonoEv3 have edited many of the same articles and they're probably the same person.[8] I already nominated it for WP:PROD but after one day the author removed the tag. Edit: I just realized that minutes after removing the tag, the same user created the article in the Portuguese Wikipedia as well, but it was immediately nominated for speedy deletion there.

- Delete This article has some information moved from the Portuguese Wikipedia where it too has been selected for speedy deletion. Chabota Kanguya (talk) 05:16, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
- Delete I don't read Portuguese--so take that for what it's worth--but I don't need to to see that 5 of the provided references are blogs, one is a dead link, and the others look like promotional content from the radio station he works with. The nominator lays out a good case all around. Clearly a vanity page. ShelbyMarion (talk) 09:02, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
