I discovered the 2008 AfD by starting to add a {{PROD}} to this article, with the following reason: "an orphaned bio whose single ref fails to establish notability per WP:AUTHOR"; the article history shows that since 2008, most of the improvement was by one editor, who added a ref and cleaned it up significantly, yet the article in its current state still fails to meet WP:AUTHOR"...67.101.5.130 (talk) 04:42, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Google News, BBC News and The Guardian provided nothing relevant. Although Jo4n added one reference, the article remains to read like a personal biography you would find at an official website. Non-notable poet from what I see. SwisterTwister talk 05:42, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - he may be a lovely guy but my next door neighbour has more notability. Maxkingesq (talk) 23:43, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for making a mockery of WP:AUTHOR and WP:BK. Qworty (talk) 02:06, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I've added multiple independent reliable sources. The costume work is interesting if there was a source for it. Win any awards? Maybe there are other news sources for some of the stated appearances like Spoken Worlds or New York. Any other book reviews? Believe this one could be notable. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 22:49, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
