  • Comment. Two books currently available from Walmart/Amazon/B&N, from publishers that seem to be non-vanity and scholarly. I'm too new here (about 5 weeks, only 12-1400 edits)--do we have a standard threshold for authors? Niteowlneils 06:01, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)
OK, I've formatted the article and expanded it to include his offline accomplishments to give people a better view to vote on. Niteowlneils 06:01, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: personal promotion. User:66.108.138.83 has littered other articles (art, Ayn Rand, definition of art) with promotional stuff, and also created the promotional article Michelle Marder Kamhi. Away with this garbage; let him/her pay for advertising. Wile E. Heresiarch 14:11, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. There is no meaningful content in the article, just the two-book bibliography. Bear in mind that the large booksellers (Amazon etc) now have micropublisher programs in place to sell books that only sell a handful of copies, so presence on Amazon no longer connotes mainstream sales.

  • This did not have the VfD note on it. I've put it on now. I think it should be kept for at least another five days before a decision is made. The article seems factual and correct, so I see no reason to delete it. Camembert 14:50, 12 Apr 2004 (UTC)
