This article survived a prod back in 2006, but it does not seem to have any assertion of notability and I cannot find any sources about this man that he did not write himself. Brian the Editor (talk) 20:57, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The de-PROD was based on the fact that he had published a book. However, there is coverage about him, or his book in my searches. Note that the publisher of the book is Cotton & Cigar Publishers, which also happens to be owned by Samuel F. Rhodes, so it is essentially self-published. -- Whpq (talk) 15:37, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - article does not establish notability. The claims are: 1) his book I Saw You Sitting On The Moon, 14 G-hits; 2) ownership of a few non-notable firms. All incoming links except the one from List of poets from the United States seems to be referring to another Samuel Rhodes. jonkerz ♠ 23:56, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
