There are concerns this article does not meet WP:GNG, and it was previously redirect per these concerns. Given the substantial article with some demonstrated notability, I considered it better to nominate it for AfD to gain a sure consensus. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 21:44, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Doesn't come close to meeting GNG; individual is known for WP:1E, everything else in the article is fluff and filler designed to make the article subject look notable. The book he wrote is more notable than the author, hence the original redirect from author article to book article My Uncle's Wedding. Article was resurrected today by likely sock of the article creator, indeffed user User:Kbabej (see current SPI on this user). If nothing else, article should be a permanent redirect to the book per WP:DENY due to continued sock activity. -- WV 22:00, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
