Carter Monroe

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Apparently non-notable author. Has one novel self-published through vanity press AuthorHouse, and his other work consists of chapbooks and such through such suspect presses as Fingerprint Press, Rank Stranger Press, and Thunder Sandwich Press, none of which have Wikipedia articles or much Google presence. The man himself produces only 203 hits, many of which are irrelevant. There simply isn't any indication that this guy meets Notability (books) at all. -Elmer Clark 00:58, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete vanity-press authors tend to be non-notable pretty much by definition, and even the article admits his one and only vanity novel didn't sell well. No reliable sources either. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  09:36, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per the above. It doesn't even say what the person's real name is (where Monroe is the pseudonym).  tomasz.  11:36, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete – written only one novel which does clearly not pass WP:BK, article cites no sources, is not verifiable, and there is no indication of notability.  Melsaran  (talk) 12:09, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
