Thomas Crean (priest)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

No evidence of notability. He jumped on a bandwagon and wrote a book, but there is no evidence of any coverage of either author or book in reliable external sources. Fails WP:BIO; maybe also WP:AUTOBIO; and see WP:RESUME SNALWIBMA ( talk - contribs ) 13:32, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete as nominator. SNALWIBMA ( talk - contribs ) 09:02, 10 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. Since the subject is only potentially notable for authorship of a single book, the article falls exclusively under the scope of WP:AUTHOR.  There is no evidence that this book has, by itself, been the subject of multiple independent reviews in periodicals (news search).   Sławomir Biały  (talk) 17:57, 9 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. No independent sources given, and none found: every single Google hit I looked at was plugging Crean or his book. It comes nowhere near satisfying either WP:BIO or the general notability guidelines. JamesBWatson (talk) 18:51, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - while he and his book may become notable, they are not yet so. Bearian (talk) 17:51, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
