In response to your feedback
Do the references speak about the book???? See WP:42. In my quick look it appeared the references should have been in the book, ie: they didn't show what independent writers in reliable sources had said about the book.

Hello Wiki Team, I appreciate the feedback from all of you; except from one. Yunshui. His comment was:

Hello Portwell,

The existence of a book (or anything else) is not sufficient grounds for inclusion on Wikipedia - we only publish articles about topics that meet Wikipedia's notability requirements. To compare the notability of a self-published book launched through CreateSpace to that of a novel released by  Random House  which became one of the bestselling books of all time is, frankly, somehwat laughable.

Since you have not requested a new username, and since you app arently do not wish to edit Wikipedia beyond promoting your book, I am closing this unblock request.

I have three comments and I hope this is the forum for it. First, apparently is one word, not two (lack of attention to detail). Second, Yunshui, Da Vinci Code was published by Bantam and Double Day, not Random House as you stated. Third, it is because of Wikipedia's lack of accuracy (such as your errors with spelling and in publishing companies, Yunshui) that every college professor claims, "Do not reference Wikipedia. It is not a notable source."

Block
This edit is enough to win you a new block. But trying to push your book also has something to do with it. You also qualify for an indefinite block for sock puppetry. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:05, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
