Jim Michael Hansen

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable author, no biographical sources available to show a WP:GNG pass. Article reeks of promo/COI. I'm unable to find enough reviews of the books in this series to substantiate any claim at passing WP:NAUTHOR - none on GNews or Google, and only two on Highbeam - which, for a series containing 9 books, isn't much. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 21:13, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete with the comment that "Michael Hansen" is a surprisingly common name. Something on a different chap with this name led me to start sourcing the article.  Interviews with Hansen have appeared in the (local) Fort Collins Coloradoan after publication of several of his books. His books are published in paperback by a small house that appears to be a real publisher. At least one was reviewed in a book review the name of which escapes me at the moment bu t that reviews novels form small presses.  That's the best I can do, and it's not enough.  Always happy to reconsider if someone finds WP:RSs.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:08, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
