promotional article, almost entirely written by banned undeclared paid editors.

The claims to being a producer of the various shows are generally correct; the claims that the shows won awards are correct. The claims that he won an award for being the producer are false. The books are all self-published--only the first is even in WorldCat

If he is notable, this needs to be started over. DGG ( talk ) 20:22, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

Keep - First, I totally agree it's promotional and would benefit from a re-write, it reads like a LinkedIn resume, but I do think he passes GNG, and I would also like to know which - claims that he won an award for being the producer are false - because they are plenty of sources that say otherwise - [http://www.lohud.com/story/money/business/2015/04/09/ken-mahoney-building-brand-lessons/25517097/ a Tony award-winning Broadway producer], [http://www.investors.com/news/management/financial-advisor-briefing/turning-your-hobbies-into-business-building-opportunities-requires-sensitivity/ he won a Tony Award as a producer.], [http://www.fa-mag.com/news/advisor-s-work-on-broadway-earns-two-tonys-28210.html owner of two Tony Awards for his work as a producer], [http://www.pippinthemusical.com/producers.php Ken is a Tony Award winning and Grammy nominated Producer], [http://www.miamishoot.com/my-miami-ken-mahoney/ a Tony Award winning producer], [http://northsalem.dailyvoice.com/neighbors/north-salems-mahoney-wins-tony-launches-audience-website/582859/ Mahoney Wins Tony], [http://hudson.wish.org/news-and-events/wish-blog/2015/wish-house-news/new-board-directors-fy15 a producer who has won multiple Tony Awards and three Emmys.]-- Isaidnoway (talk) 17:38, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
Delete per WP:TNT - I agree with Isaidnoway that the subject is notable, but the article as it is is a complete mess. — Chevvin 19:36, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
Delete instead as I also notice the apparent awards but there are still concerns that are outweighing this and with there being nothing substantial enough to suggest keeping altogether, this is best deleted. I would also suggest, if a new user attempts this, to please use AfC instead. SwisterTwister talk 06:16, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
Delete per WP:PROMO. Nothing salvageable here. Best deleted and then recreated a not an advertisement. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:57, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
