Comment Found this, a website published by the Maltese government who would (one hopes) not simply swipe stuff off Wikipedia in the belief that it bears a passing resemblannce to reality. If judged reliable, it establishes his existence & menberhip of the national water-polo team. Which, given the gobsmackingly low bar for the notability of sportspeople, surely makes him notable. It's still a horrible and (if the Maltese Times source is not kosher) unsourced article.TheLongTone (talk) 18:26, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
