No references; I couldn't find much on Google either. Biruitorul Talk

It's pretty easy to find his book on Amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Tall-Cotton-Charles-Hulse/dp/0758201214

 * Delete. Bio without sources and it looks like nobody is going to add any either. VG &#x260E; 04:14, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep. Seems to have written numerous works, though I had a hard time gauging how well-known/significant they are. Perhaps someone more familiar can help. Eatabullet (talk) 13:08, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Certainly, the article claims he's written numerous works, but can you or anyone else point to some mention of them outside this article? Biruitorul Talk 00:33, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure, if you Google it, you can find a wide variety of his books mentioned. Admittedly I haven't researched it in depth but its definitely showing up in my search results.Eatabullet (talk) 03:17, 14 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom, we can't just go around keeping unsourced biographical articles on a whim. JBsupreme (talk) 03:09, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. He has written several books, published by major publishing houses. In Tall Cotton Google Books Amazon is published by Kensington Books, which we have an article on, apparently the 7th largest publisher in the United States. The Google Books scan sports a Publishers Weekly review comment on its back cover. He also wrote The Good Life Google Books Amazon in a collaboration with Gordon Merrick, whom we have an article on. It was published by Alyson Publications, which we also have an article on; it's not as big as Kensington, but neither is it a vanity press. The other books I can't find quickly, but I don't have to, that's enough. --GRuban (talk) 19:04, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete due to lack of non-trivial sources about the author. This appears to be a problem still. RFerreira (talk) 19:07, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, Princeton University says it has a lengthy newspaper article which describes Hulse's acquaintance with Merrick and their life together. So sources exist. --GRuban (talk) 21:12, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment, these papers seem to be more about Merrick than Hulse though. Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:16, 18 October 2008 (UTC).
 * Delete, per seeming lack of nontrivial third-party coverage. I am uneasy about any unsourced BLP, and this one is no exception.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:16, 18 October 2008 (UTC).
