[edit] Death Wizard Chronicles
Non-notable book series. Article has no independent, reliable sources. All relevant Google hits are the website for the series, a video which appears to have been self-produced, his own blogs, and clips quoted on other blogs. The user name of the original author is User:Thedeathwizard, which indicates a likely conflict of interest. Furthermore, the user's account is new and apparently a single-purpose account. Looks like a pretty obvious effort by the author to promote his book series. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 02:58, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oy. To start with, the article's mis-named: the text is about the author, not the series. The author's only claim to notability here is the books, though, so nearly the same qualification applies, namely has he/they gotten noticed. I'm finding no evidence of this. Delete. —Quasirandom (talk) 03:46, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. To start with, the contents of the article don't deal with the title. The author that the article discusses seems to be non-notable, as do his books. My search for sources resulted in the same outcome as the nominator's. Lankiveil (speak to me) 05:26, 27 February 2008 (UTC).
- Delete - self-promotion, not notable. JohnCD (talk) 11:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
