Basically this is viral advertising for the subject's book. There is no online information on him other than in the couple of barely good enough articles which comment on the lack of information out there about him. Clever promotion, but not really Wikipedia worthy yet, his book might be if it actually does get coverage out of this but the book does not seem to pass notability either, I'm not seeing many (if any) independent reviews or coverage.

 * Delete annoying promo bullsh*t - we should not be helping them out with their ad campaign. I suppose - and I say this with heavy heart - if at some time in the future it becomes truly notable, either because of the book or because of the campaign - "Council sues book promotors over vandalism" or whatever - then we might have to cover it. Till then, please not. DBaK (talk) 20:29, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Any notability obviously comes from individuals or organizations that have a stake in this book's success. We shouldn't set a precedent where to be considered notable, all you have to do is print up a bunch of stickers and vandalize public areas with them.  City O f  Silver  20:33, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
