Delete Per nom. All books appear to be self-published. Award is dubious as there are no Google hits for it and awarded by a Sunday School? Something is probably lost in translation, but the award does not seem notable. Probably should be speedy deleted per WP:CSD#A7 -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 08:21, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment to closing admin: With the original author's (account subsequently indef blocked by me) repeated attempts to remove the AfD notice and bizarre inclusion of UK royalty and/or University of Oxford templates, it might be a good idea to salt the article once it is deleted. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:43, 17 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Vanity piece created, most probably, by subject himself. Salih (talk) 09:09, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as failing WP:AUTHOR, and I'd have tagged it as A7. Nolelover^{It's football season!} 18:40, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete. Blatant vanity article. I know we assess this on notability first, but the fact that the user kept try to delete the AfD notice until getting himself banned, plus his unilateral addition of a Good Article template to his article suggests we've got someone whose idea of an encyclopedia anyone can edit is a website where you have the right to a page on yourself exactly to your specifications.

The editor was not banned, just blocked. Though the editor is now evading that block through a wireless connection. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 08:20, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails WP:AUTHOR, WP:BK, WP:AUTO, etc. Also, given the author's strange manipulations of the article, SALT. Qworty (talk) 19:59, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
