Article asserts notability, but fails to prove it. There are no sources provided, and a google search returns no results. ContinueWithCaution (talk) 11:06, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:V and as stands doesn't really meet WP:N either. The award doesn't say they actually won it, the book is not released, and they controversy doesn't seem even newsworthy.--TParis00ap (talk) 11:33, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete IMHO the claims alone would not meet WP:GNG or WP:Notability (person) but I recognize that is debateable. However, combined with the lack of reliable sources, the lack of information when I did my own research, the COI issue, etc. delete for now without prejudice for re-creation when an acceptable article is written by someone independent of the subject.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail)  13:12, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, per Davidwr, and WP:NOTMYSPACE. Wuh  Wuz  Dat  00:41, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Per another removal of the AFD tag here, I have semi-protected the article for 3 days, which will be pretty much the duration of the AFD. MuZemike 20:55, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Someone who blanks an AfD discussion does not deserve an article. &mdash; RHaworth 05:07, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, to be completely fair, we don't know if the primary author is the subject or just a fan-boy, or a sly-like-a-fox joe job. I'm betting 49.9999/49.9999 on the first two though.  Only 1 in a million that it's the latter. davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail)  05:53, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
