Al Steiner

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

This is a biography of one of the top author's at StoriesOnline, a site not notable enough for Wikipedia to have an article on it (apparenttly) and just barely in the top 15,000 most popular websites. While this article apparently established that Steiner is rather popular on that site, this really doesn't translate to Wikipedia notability, especially as there are no reliable sources about this guy, and none exist on Google News Archive, as far as I can tell. He doesn't meet WP:BIO or any other inclusion guideline. I get that people on the website like him, but there's been no coverage of him outside that website, and maybe on very closely related websites. Movingday29 (talk) 02:30, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete--I don't see any outside coverage either. Nothing on Google News, which suggests that outside of the website there is not much interest in providing in-depth, third-party coverage. Drmies (talk) 03:25, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom.
