 * Strong Delete Unambiguous copyright violation (G-12). Also lacks notability as per nom. Additionally user Queens English has deleted the original AfD notice from the page(??!!) -Ad Orientem (talk) 06:42, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Possible User Misconduct User Queens English has now removed the G-12 tag I just placed on the article. -Ad Orientem (talk) 06:58, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete per G12; tagged as such. It doesn't help that the subject of the article created it in January 2012 and hasn't been on Wikipedia since.  Erpert  Who is this guy? 06:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete The little extra information not in the Amazon profile from which most of the article is copied is also from a separate Amazon page. I searched High Beam and found nothing on this person. I search google and found a blog interview which discloses very little and quite a lot of promotional material for books and albums. I also found a few stories with his byline. In other words, I did not find much. I did not find enough to write an article independent of the amazon profile. Based on that profile, I suppose one could write that he is an author of seven books of poetry and is a musician with a CD or two. I don't find that to be enough to revise and keep the article. It does not seem to be enough to establish notability for a creative professional. I see one or more of his books are published by Xlibris which is a self-publishing company, which raises doubt at least about how widespread his work has become.
