Scott Cairns (Novelist)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsourced BLP article about an author who apparently wrote one novel, which may have been self-published. Unable to find reliable sources with which to establish notability per WP:AUTHOR. - MrX 17:59, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - I can find no coverage in reliable sources for Cairns, nor any reviews for Howash and Hooey or Silver. I also see no coverage about being shortlisted for the 2013 Historical Novel Society Award.  The award itself is apparently for unpublished works, so it's not surprising the award has not receoved much attention. -- Whpq (talk) 17:12, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
