Brian Freeman: Edgar-Nominated Mystery Author[edit]

unsourced autobiograhy/advert of probably NN writer. Was deprodded with recomendation to userfy, but creator has no other edits. -Steve Sanbeg 19:30, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The text is lifted fro the author's website. The article should be deleted for copyright violation, if nothing else. No question that Freeman is deserving of an article, but this ain't it. Victoriagirl 20:09, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment We already have a page for a Brian Freeman. Are they the same guy? If so merge content and delete as a redirect; if not, just delete (or move and totally rewrite).--Cúchullain ^t/c 19:33, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I noticed that myself. It would seem that they are two different writers. How inconvenient for the both of them! Victoriagirl 20:08, 16 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks notable enough to me, but copyvio is certainly a problem. Keepable if cleaned up for copyvio by the time this AFD closes, but delete if that hasn't been done. If kept, the title also has to be changed. Bearcat 02:05, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think Bearcat is spot on. Victoriagirl 02:14, 17 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - the guy has only published one book so far; the rest are unsourced claims. TerriersFan 01:48, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - if any of this were sourced I'd be less hostile, but it seems like self promotion and looks unreliable. JASpencer 06:48, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
