Affinity Konar

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

First-time author whose book has been published but is not garnering much attention or high sales fails WP:CREATIVE.  Ja Ga  talk 04:15, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep for now - Author has just published her first book on March 8, 2009, so I support waiting for a few months before we decide on this new author's notability; rather than delete now just to create the article later. Unionsoap (talk) 15:02, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I dunno. "They may be notable later" doesn't seem like a valid reason. Shouldn't a person prove their notability before they're given an entry in Wikipedia? -- Ja Ga  talk  06:56, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete (G11). The praise by Ben Marcus mentioned in the article is what is called a blurb in the industry and does not confer any sort of notability. Combined with the lack of press attention this amounts to nothing more than an attempt at advertising the book. - Mgm|(talk) 09:42, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
