I myself have not found anything better and he's not held in any actual libraries, let alone substance outside, so there's still nothing for convincing notability. As such, the sources should have been carefully examined to see this because I had spoken to the author user about this. Merely having 3 recently published books but no actual reviews, only 3 mere ones and the other ones largely interviews and quotes, suggests he's simply advertising himself, so this should not have been accepted.}} ~~~~Timestamp: 20161104225854 22:58, 4 November 2016 (UTC) Administrators: delete |
