 * Comment - note that Michael Ballé is salted. This article says he wrote a best-seller - true or fluff?  —Мандичка YO 😜 16:41, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't see any evidence that Michael Ballé is salted. I clicked on the red link, and was brought to a an creation page. No entries in the logs about this page being salted.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 18:46, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * This is weird, when I type in Michael Ballé or Michael Balle manually into the browser, it is salted, but when I click on the link it is not. Weird.  —Мандичка YO 😜 20:30, 3 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete New article written by new editor. I searched but could not find notability for the novels (self-published?) or for Balle as a journalist, he is a business success coach.  Probable self-promotion.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:39, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
