The result was   delete. Participation is fairly low, but Msnicki has offered an analysis of the sources that illustrates why they don't meet the requirements for independence or significance. Sjakkalle (Check!)  19:59, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Subject has dubious claim to notability. Tagged for notability since October. No evidence that books Farrell wrote were published. Article looks like a vanity piece, likely created by the subject of the article. BlackCab (talk) 10:53, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. Lacks reliable independent secondary sources to establish notability as required by WP:GNG. The Sydney Morning Herald story was written by Farrell himself, making it a primary source and not usable.  The Channel 9 program isn't about him, he's merely interviewed.  The other two sources are simply useless.  I Googled and couldn't find anything else.  The article appears to be WP:AUTO.  Msnicki (talk) 16:14, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
