Either vanity or non-notable, take your pick. RickK 09:30, Jan 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Both? Delete Lectonar 11:48, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. "An obscure fiction author". Indeed. - Jpo 12:42, Jan 20, 2005 (UTC)
- That could be either an author of fiction that is obscure, or a fiction author that is obscure. It seems to be both. The book mentioned is real (ISBN 1411606868). Delete. Uncle G 14:38, 2005 Jan 20 (UTC)
- Do Not Delete - Information on all writers and books is useful. Just below in the VfD section a user mentioned that they study writers and all information, no matter how "non-notable" it may seem to you, is useful. The book is indeed real, and was easily found on amazon and barnes and noble. Non-notable? (CaptainAggro according to history Uncle G 20:11, 2005 Jan 20 (UTC))
- You are referring to Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Claudia Keenan where Cruachan153, the original author of the article, cast a vote in favour of its retention on the grounds that xe found the news in xyr own article helpful for xyr study. I'd be wary of using that as a basis for argument. Uncle G 20:11, 2005 Jan 20 (UTC)
- CaptainAggro's only edits are to this page. RickK 21:02, Jan 20, 2005 (UTC)
- I don't really see the need to be wary, nor was I entirely worried about making some huge argument. I was just saying, it's a good point. And this is a piece of literature whether it's a childrens book or some picture book. I don't see why everyone is so eager to discount it.CaptainAggro
- The article under discussion is about the author not about the book. Uncle G 11:55, 2005 Jan 21 (UTC)

- Do not delete - Have done extensive research on this author and he is a brilliant up and coming writer. First hand research has shown that the man is indeed a popular sex symbol in the northwest US. Sean Morgan is now thought to have sired at least 50 children in 20 states. Furthermore, he has written under pen names many erotic short stories and occassional informational pamplets an the stimulation of a woman's g-spot. We would be doing the world a disservice by deleting this entry.
- Do Not Delete. Just as Cruachan153 was weeping about, you can't just delete a page because your sources don't show it. There is plenty of information about this author, he is my favorite. I plan to father his children.
- Do Not Delete. There is no question about the truth on this page. This writer is a professional wizard whose mysticism dominates those who have little faith in sketchy details. It is not worth deleting just because you can't prove it wrong or right. Maybe stamp a 'QUESTIONABLE' sticker on the top and leave it there. The viewers can decide on it's reliability. Sean Morgan for president!

- That was of my buddy Kirk, I was testing. I didn't know there was a sandbox. I've changed since then, I went to AA, bought a new house, stopped masturbating, and got my GED.

I love how you fellows would rather delete than edit the page down to meet your standards of reliability. You'd rather remove the page and forfeit civilian knowledge of the author than provide a decent description. All that needs to be put up is, "Little is known about this author. He has written a book entitled Snapshot (provide link to amazon or whatever) and operates his official website--www.seanmorgan.net." Any glance at that website will reveal the author's influences, biographical events, ambitions, and whatever else. Good game guys, continue to vote delete, you sticky gargling stormtroopers --68.147.138.231 21:15, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC) [How's this? Like it really eff-wording matters]
