Black Like Who?

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article has been sitting here since 2009 waiting for references to be added. The notability of this book is not asserted, and the only references to the material are self-references. The article itself is poorly written promotional material written by User:Pommarsmit, who seems to indicate on his user page that he is in fact Rinaldo Walcott, the author of this book. (And on the page for Rinaldo Walcott, he has made edits that only Walcott himself could know, such as contracts signed for upcoming books.) This is promotional material of a non-notable book and should be deleted. Bueller 007 (talk) 19:07, 9 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete- obvious promotional piece. Some of this could possibly be merged to Rinaldo Walcott, if he is deemed notable enough to retain his article as well.--Rusf10 (talk) 00:11, 10 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete totally non notable as all criteria of WP:NBOOK are not met. Failing notability and apparent promotional article deletion is more appropriate. There are two references in the article; the first one is this source but sincerely I can't even find the name of the book in it. The second reference is the book cited to support the book again, that's WP:CIRCULAR reference and confirmation of non-notability. –Ammarpad (talk) 13:32, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
