 * The article should not be deleted. It is a published work of American literature.Enderle67556 (talk


 * I marked the page for deletion because it does not meet the criteria listed here Notability_%28books%29 Having the book published, on amazon, and well sold does not create notability. (However, being well sold will probably LEAD to notability once newspapers and magazines start writing reviews, commentary, etc. in particular, the following quote from the linked page is instructive ""A book's listing at online bookstores such as Barnes & Noble.com or Amazon.com is not by itself an indication of notability as both websites are non-exclusionary, including large numbers of vanity press publications. There is no present agreement on how high a book must fall on Amazon's sales rank listing (in the "product details" section for a book's listing) in order to provide evidence of its notability or non-notability.""Gaijin42 (talk) 20:26, 20 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Further, the book is #1,657,951 on amazon, not exactly a best seller. Gaijin42 (talk) 20:32, 20 October 2011 (UTC)I said it was a best seller in its Genre....not for the total sales on amazon.comEnderle67556 (talk) 12:58, 21 October 2011 (UTC)


 * By the way, if you wish to contest this deletion, you need to comment on it on the deletion page to have it have any effect. Gaijin42 (talk) 20:34, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Timothy J. McAlpin is on radio shows all over the United States. November 7 on KAJN in LA to over two million people he will be interviewed and tomorrow Oct 21 on KDAZ in New Mexico. McAlpin is booked all throughout this year on TV and Radio and will be in OWN Network in January. Wikipedia should have info on McALPIN so as not to be viewed as not up with cutting edge information.Enderle67556 (talk) 20:03, 20 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Publicity interviews do not create notability. An interview with him is a 1st party source, which is according to wiki policy does not indicate notability. It would have to be an article, book, or discussion about the author (or book). Gaijin42 (talk) 20:32, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

ok--agreed.Enderle67556 (talk) 12:48, 21 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Additionally, the fact that you know this much about interviews that have not happened yet, indicate that you are probably the author, family, agent, publisher etc which further violates wiki policy. AFTER the interviews (particularly the oprah one) then the book may be notable. It would depend on how verifiable, and how PR-ish the interviews are. Gaijin42 (talk) 02:26, 21 October 2011 (UTC)Thank you--we will repost after the interviews and TV shows with references. go ahead and delete the page.Enderle67556 (talk) 13:00, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
