Nora Fountain

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable author who self-publishes via Amazon and Smashwords. I searched, and while there are plenty of g-hits, they are all social media or sales pages. Absolutely no coverage in WP:RS found. Fails WP:AUTHOR and the GNG. Liv it ⇑ Eh?/What? 18:50, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Rorshacma (talk) 19:13, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. The fact that she has published e-books through Amazon and other retailers does not indicate, in and of itself, that she is non-notable per WP guidelines.  What is most damning here is 1) the utter lack of any WP:RS presented to establish or even hint at notability and 2) the fact that the article is apparently written by a relative, in violation of WP:COI.  This is precisely the kind of abuse the coibot is designed to spot, though I don't know that this was what led to the nomination for deletion. Qworty (talk) 03:50, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
