• Delete: A poorly-referenced WP:SPA article on a writer who has published via Invincible Publishers and Marketeers and previously Authors Press. Aside from others of the same name (journalist, vice-chancellor, judge), my searches are finding only a possible passing mention which may be the subject in an article documenting a political meet-and-greet in Varanasi ([1]), though the article indicates the subject lives elsewhere. As things stand, I see no evidence that the subject meets WP:AUTHOR. AllyD (talk) 07:21, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - he's written one self-published novel from Invincible Publishers, a vanity press, which does not make him a "writer". We are not a spam dumping ground. Bearian (talk) 14:29, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - article does not demonstrate topic meets WP:GNG. - Scarpy (talk) 20:29, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Clearly does not pass WP:NAUTHOR or the GNG. Chetsford (talk) 20:03, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Fails WP:42 & WP:NAUTHOR. Accesscrawl (talk) 07:16, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
