The result was redirect to Becoming Jimi Hendrix. A strict reading of the arguments presented here would call for an outright delete, but per WP:ATD-R, I'm going to redirect as suggested by Rhododendrites. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:34, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Can't find a single independent+reliable source about him. Fails WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 19:58, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. Although he's definitely published a few books, I can't find any coverage that provides notability. Fails WP:GNG. APerson (talk!) 21:41, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete unfortunately as my searches found nothing aside from some Huffington Post links and this. Although it doesn't concern me too much that the author seems to have started the article, what does is there's no improvement here thus, unless someone wants to draft/userfy to their space, delete.

 * I'm not disagreeing with any of the editors above, merely sharing my puzzlement. The article makes some grand but far form implausible claims.  For example, it is not implausible that a parody of the Guiness Book of World Records entitled, Weird Wonders and Bizarre Blunders: The Official Book of Ridiculous Records by an author I never heard of could have been a "bestselling" book in 1989.  And it could be true that Schriber "created the cable TV nonfiction series,"  North Mission Road - not, I surmise, among the memorable events in television history.   However, I took a brief swing at sourcing and didn't readily find anything. so,  Delete without prejudice.   What are you Laughing At?  Schreiber's books are real, it's the notability that is not readily apparent.  (Flag me anyone, if you find sources) E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:51, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Here's his IMDB page.  I'm withholding judgment for now, hoping that someone will do a more thorough search for sources.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:27, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Does not support (WP:GNG)& (WP:AUTHOR). W i k i 92 man  (Talk/Stalk) 09:23, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Have added book reviews, of which many more can be added.  he has the same name as a major league pitcher, which makes articles on him require key word searches.  But he passes WP:CREATIVE.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:12, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment - When I looked for sources, most of the good ones I found were about the book he co-authored, Becoming Jimi Hendrix. In fact, there were enough reviews to justify an article per WP:NBOOK. I'm still not sure about Schreiber's notability, but at least now there's a redirect target: Becoming Jimi Hendrix. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 20:08, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
