:({{Find sources|Daniel Karpantschof}})

Non-notable individual lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. Article has some references, but is lacking secondary source to support. Appears to fail WP:BIO. ttonyb (talk) 15:04, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

I just read the WP:BIO and must say that if you don't find a 14 year old ambassador to the UNESCO significant or notable, we really have some interesting parameters for success, don't we? ;)

Hi,

I am adding more citations from press and media outlets, but most of them are in Danish. I am eager to learn the craft of putting together a correct Wikipedia Article, including the lingo and correct citation. --Pjhansson (talk) 15:11, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Is the article sufficient cited now? --Pjhansson (talk) 15:11, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

• Delete - I would say hoax, but reading the article does give the impression of an actual claim. The english sources are scarce and non reliable. There is a Daniel Karpantschof listed in Dogville as a development consultant, but even if it refer to the subject the movie didn't make him known for it. The claims in the areas of politics are not well referenced either, and even if it could be verified it would still have to meet WP:POLITICIAN, and the same for being an entrepreneur. It would be very useful is someone could review the Danish sources, but unless something remarkably notable turns out this is clear WP:SPAM - frankie^MR (talk) 01:46, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Most of his work is done in Danish, but a search in InfoMedia (Danish media archive) reveals extensive credentials. In terms of Dogville, the movie actually did make him quite famous in the international feature film industry. While it is greatly different from the mainstream community, being nominated for a Palm d'Or is almost as good as being nominated for an academy award. My Danish isn't perfect, but good enough to do media research. It's really no wonder that most of the sources are in Danish as he only recently moved to the US. --Pjhansson (talk) 16:50, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

• Delete his UNESCO role doesn't even rate a mention. nothing in gnews [http://news.google.com/archivesearch?&as_src=-newswire+-wire+-presswire+-PR+-release+-wikipedia&q=%22Daniel+Karpantschof%22]. fails WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 03:43, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

GNews doesn't cover Denmark and 1999-2002 is before GNews covers even US. Have tried to find pages on the Danish Ministry of Education that would cover both Karpantschof's involvement in the board of education as well as UNESCO, but the pages are no longer there - not surprising since its been ten years. There are a lot of Danish media on the subject though. Tried to upload scanned frontpages to WikiCommons, but they were removed.--Pjhansson (talk) 14:19, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
