The article does not assert notability with independent sources, which I failed to find with a quick Google. There is also potentially a conflict of interest as the creator is a co-author of a book along with the subject. wctaiwan (talk) 08:26, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete, not notable. A similar version was speedied before as A7. Hairhorn (talk) 17:32, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Not notable as an WP:AUTHOR as sources do not exist that are independent of the subject that establish his expertise as a writer. The current article relies frequently on original research and self published sources. It is possible someone can demonstrate notability based on WP:POLITICIAN. However, most of sources on Google are subscription only and I cannot determine if it goes beyond WP:ROUTINE coverage to determine if notability can be established by WP:POLITICIAN. Some quotations from identified sources could help to verify any notability claims. With the noted conflict of interest concerns, please ensure sources are reliable —Bagumba (talk) 18:56, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
