Nomination for Deletion for Alan Gratz
Please note that I have nominated for deletion the article you created for Alan Gratz. According to WP:Bio, an author is notable for inclusion in Wikipedia as "Published authors, editors, and photographers who have written books with an audience of 5,000 or more or in periodicals with a circulation of 5,000 or more". As only a single publication which has not yet been published can be located on Amazon.com, I do not feel this meets the notability criteria for living authors. You are welcome to dispute this on the nomination page here, if you wish. Thank you, and all the best. --Ataricodfish 02:28, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
