 * Delete The large number of reliable sources appear to be articles written by Balint. Not about or independent of Balint. No real claim to notability shown. Just a writer doing his job (the publication list suggests doing it well but that does not make him notable). Duffbeerforme (talk) 17:35, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Every one of those so-called reliable sources is written by the subject, not about him. I wish people would actually look at claimed sources rather than get dazzled by their quantity. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:42, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per Duffbeerforme. Offered links are not reliable sources independent of the subject. Notability not established. لenna  vecia  15:59, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
