Non-notable, possible vanity article SDC 04:48, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. I heard about his book through the Internet and decided to buy it last year. I found all answers that I needed and it changed my lifestyle.  My friend listened to him on the radio and he was awesome.  I did a report on Douglas Haddad and everybody at my University in Kaunas in Lithuania was amazed about his personality!  Thanks wikipedia for the information about his life.
 * Delete —  NN; I'm sure he's a nice man. Chris Griswold 07:14, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment. His book is published by iUniverse, a print-on-demand publisher. However, it is listed on Amazon.com, together with some favorable comments. ISBN 0595349323 -- TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 07:57, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Only 171 distinct Ghits for "douglas haddad", allowing that many of those are unrelated to the subject.  Yes, he has a book, but the book fails WP:BK for not having multiple non-trivial reviews, hasn't been adapted to a major motion picture, shows no information that it's been adopted as a textbook, etc.  Book itself has only 30 distinct Ghits, largely catalog listings, and shows an Amazon sales rank of somewhere below 1.8 millionth.  Article is unsourced and unverified, and appears to be original research (at least it's not copyvio from anywhere I can find).  Tychocat 09:11, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete book is on-demand. Has a minor Radio & acting career but not enough IMHO.    Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  12:44, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
