One doesn't become an admin by deleting articles. One can't delete articles until one is an admin.

I'm very active with deletions. 5% of the deletions draw responses, which I mostly deal with on the talk pages of the people who complained. 95% go unchallenged, which isn't bad. Remember, people don't complain when you do things right.

You haven't done anything to earn a block, so don't assume you'll be a martyr.

I don't "get my kicks" by deleting articles. It's maintenance work. I don't get my kicks by washing dishes or changing the cat's litterbox either, but it's necessary.

Wikipedia is not for advertising. Many people try to use it for advertising, and this has to be removed.

If you do not assert notability for a book in any way whatsoever, then the article cannot stay. It is that simple.

And if 'hours' were spent on 'researching and creating' that article, why was it so badly-made? DS (talk) 02:12, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
