 * Please include criteria for significant discussion of an author. Querus Abuttu is a member of the Horror Writer's Association, has published work (not self published) and is a horror writer with a past imersed in service to the United States Navy and U.S. Public Health. In comparison to the entry for Jeremy Shipp, there is no reason for this entry to be deleted. It has presence on Amazon, references per an interview, published work, and other venues. If I may draw your attention to one of my fellow writers listed on Wikipedia: Jeremy Shipp. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Shipp My entries are no less valid than what is included on that page. Thank you for your consideration. Ctferg13 (talk) 01:58, 30 May 2013 (UTC)ctferg13

Delete Amazon is a sales site, not a reliable source. Doesn't appear sufficiently notable  Jimfbleak -  talk to me?  05:22, 30 May 2013 (UTC) Delete Seems like a very interesting person, but there's nothing there that really meets WP:NAUTHOR or WP:GNG. (Jeremy Shipp possibly should be deleted too.) Bondegezou (talk) 08:57, 30 May 2013 (UTC) Delete. No assertion of notability. Most of the citations are just listing her books. —  Richard  BB  07:44, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete notability of an author is proven by reviews of their work, or significant awards, neither of which are present. The other SF author mention has at least been nominated for an award, but their notability is indeed a little dubious. I've sent it to AfD and we will see what people think.
