Success and Failure Based on Reason and Reality

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This book has little media coverage and the article is written in a very promotional way. James Richards (talk) 16:04, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

Thank you James Richards, i have tagged a request for Edit, it is not my intention to make it in a promotional context, Kindly advice what should be done for it to be neutral/meet Wikipedia Standard. I look forward to becoming a better contributor. Mark Mulwanyi (talk) 19:56, 24 June 2020 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Note I am probably too involved to give an unbiased opinion at this AfD discussion. Point to note for other editors. The author of this article identified as social media marketer here. There are conversations at Articles for deletion/Hamis Kiggundu and his talk page about managing conflicts of interest and paid editing. The editor confirmed having worked commercially for the subject through an agency before. He claims to be making Wikipedia edits "undirected", such as Ham Palm Villas, Ham Group of Companies, Ham Enterprises (U) Ltd, Haruna Sentogo, Haruna Enterprises (the latter two being the brother of Mr Kiggundu).pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 00:20, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Note Like Jake Brockman I am also too involved in trying to assist the creating editor to make a 'Delete vs Keep' !vote. The editor is receptive to help and guidance. While the editor is finding his way might I suggest Draftify in order to allow him to continue under WP:AFC guidance? Fiddle   Faddle  10:14, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Has WP:BEFORE been abandoned? This book apparently has significant press coverage, an award, and is on a national curriculum. Deletion is not cleanup, so promotional or CoI issues should be handled elsewhere. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:42, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 08:40, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment. I find the addition to the national curriculum significant, but the award is likely minor, and the so is the press coverage - I have serious doubts about the reliability of sources, much of the press coverage is a WP:INTERVIEW. I guess per WP:SYSTEMICBIAS we can lump all of that coverage and the award together and argue they make up for the second source... And try to ignore that the article reads like a promotional piece :/ --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 04:25, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per the WP:RS available and per WP:BOOKCRIT#1. Lightburst (talk) 19:32, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
