- Delete. Nothing in here qualifies as a valid assertion of notability. Someguy1221 21:25, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. -- David Eppstein 05:07, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 13:46, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep -- each of his books has independent reviews, and several have multiple. To be notable, "self-help" authors need to have a higher level of outside interest in their books than more specialized authors, but the books I searched for definitely make this mark. (Needs definite cleanup) -- Myke Cuthbert (talk) 15:28, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as above (agree about cleanup too). JJL 17:05, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per User:MscuthbertTaprobanus 17:08, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and let's all be a little more careful with the "v" word, I'm seeing it tossed around a lot. Capmango 16:12, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Perhaps there is a good reason that the "v" word is tossed around too frequently. IMHO, WP:Auto needs to be made far more stringent. Anyway, this article certainly sounds autobiographical to me. --RandomHumanoid(⇒) 20:30, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm fine with calling things COI or AUTO (though why we keep doing that in AfD when it's not relevant to deletion I dunno), but using the word Vanity is a direct attack on the author's character and strikes me as completely inappropriate. We should not assume the worst about people. Capmango 16:59, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I am familiar with the world he moves in and his credentials are quite typical. I see nothing that makes him stand out. Contrast him with someone such as Otto_Kernberg or (the poorly written article about) Roy_Schafer. --RandomHumanoid(⇒) 20:35, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, WP:AUTO not sufficient grounds to nominate. Subject looks reasonably notable and sources were provided. John Vandenberg 06:30, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
