Authorspress

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I do not see that the press is a significant publisher of any of the listed  authors that are clearly notable, nor are the journals yet notable. .WP is not a publishers catalog. The references seem to be tributes from authors it does publish, and the usual PR. The present article in WP is part of a promotional campaign, and that would really be sufficient reason for deletion. Probably I should not have removed the G11.

 * Delete I see evidence that it exists, but no real evidence that it's a noteworthy publishing house. Most of the refs I've checked appear to be by people affiliated with the company, not neutral sources.  CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 03:11, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as my searches found nothing better at all. SwisterTwister   talk  03:24, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: To allow assessment of changes made after the last "delete".
 * Delete I speedied this once, and would have done so again if another admin hadn't declined. Jimfbleak - talk to me?  07:38, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete The same editor who created this article has created several related articles, which currently are all at AfD (Phenomenal Literature, VerbalArt, and Vivekanand Jha). --Randykitty (talk) 09:47, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Searches unable to find reliable sources to demonstrate it's a notable publishing company. Elaenia (talk) 02:32, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment reworked on the drawbacks shown by the above mentioned editors. Added notability as much this article deserves. Removed promotional and advertising elements. Prinshukr (talk) 04:45, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  Sandstein   20:20, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment all they have done is moved their listing of authors into the text of the article. For almost none of them are they the major publisher, so it remains a catalog.  DGG ( talk ) 02:34, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment The last changes to the article mentioned by were made 5 days ago, but clearly this didn't motivate anybody to modify their "delete" !vote and DGG gives a god explanation for that. Given the unanimous discussion above, with the article creator being the lone dissenter, I don't think this should have been relisted/can be closed now. --Randykitty (talk) 10:01, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment added more than fifteen third party citations from newspapers and journals after the last "delete" to strengthen this article.Prinshukr (talk) 23:24, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment: Perhaps you should also note that since then, both DGG and I have indicated that this is not indicating any notability of the company. Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 11:40, 20 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment After reworking on the article, adding citations for notability and removing promotional and advertising elements i do believe article should be there. we can make this article stronger and stronger by adding further reviews and news on this press as and when comes out. For example i have added one more citations today from the journal (http://www.museindia.com/newsview.asp?id=134).Prinshukr (talk) 02:15, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
