Atma Ananda – Shanti Nathini – Dolma Jangkhu (Author)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unreferenced, self-promoting autobiography of writer failing the general notability guideline and Notability (people). The article contains an (unsubstantiated) assertion of notability, so is possibly ineligible for speedy deletion. The absence of sources makes the defects not correctable. -- Rrburke (talk) 14:57, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment - An Amazon.com autobiography is not a reliable source, and the list of publications does not establish notability of the subject. -- Rrburke (talk) 15:13, 4 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete. Many of the sources listed above are written by the subject. This would be good enough to confirm published facts, in the context that the subject said thus and so, but not good enough to establish notability. The rules on Wikipedia are that you have to have works about the subject, not by the subject. A book that discussed the works of Atma Ananda, for example - that would work. News articles discussing their works, or magazine articles going in-depth about their life - that would be fine. Unfortunately, I'm not finding any such sources here or elsewhere. My Russian is a little rusty, though. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 14:31, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
