Phillip Torres (author)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I've found no evidence of notability per WP:SCHOLAR, WP:AUTHOR, or WP:GNG. Subject (more widely known as Phil Torres) has certainly been active, but hasn't received significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. 8 peer reviewed articles, and two book published, the latter has received some praise but this article currently cannot become any more than a promotional "about the author" blurb at best, and currently seems at least WP:TOOSOON for an encyclopedia entry.

Note, there was an AFD in 2007 for Articles for deletion/Phillip Torres, which may or may not be the same subject. --Animalparty! (talk) 18:28, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

 * speedied as G4 - this is a straight-up recreation of the text deleted in Articles for deletion/Phil Torres (author), and speedied after another recreation. This is also the same person (though different article text) deleted at Articles for deletion/Phillip Torres, which many of the "delete" voters found so implausible they wondered if it was a hoax. I've also salted all three titles. Also his alias Philippe Verdoux. What are the appropriate warnings for someone who keeps creating and recreating an AFDed article? - David Gerard (talk) 09:50, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
