[edit] AmEuropa

AmEuropa (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

The article pretends that "AmEuropa" is a notable international concept, while in fact the article is nothing more than a sales platform created by a WP:single-purpose account for the promotion of a pair of books printed by notorious vanity press AuthorHouse. The entire historical archive of GoogleNews produces no sense of "AmEuropa" as a concept of international trade or culture [1]. If this were indeed a legitimate concept, then there would be WP:RS to support it. Qworty (talk) 23:11, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete per Qworty but, also because it is an advertisement masquerading as an article. Jasynnash2 (talk) 10:31, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. Advertising for a non-notable enterprise masquerading as an article about a non-notable fictional concept. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:09, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. A couple of published books on the subject is enough to establish notability in my opinion. However the content could be merged to Potential superpowers.Biophys (talk) 04:22, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment. The "two" "published" "books" don't mean a damned thing, because they are from the vanity press AuthorHouse, which means that all this guy did was open his checkbook and send them money for "publication." In other words, the most successful thing he ever wrote was that check. It's something anybody can do, and that's why it doesn't mean anything. Please see WP:SPS.
