[edit] American, Interrupted
Delete - Author and article are the same people. The creator was a user named Eurotrotter. The book is self published by "Eurotrotter Publishing" which recieved a whopping 6 hits on google, all related to this book. The books title, with the words Dan & Thompson receives 424 hits, and 21 are on the site www.american-interrupted.com, and 79 are on wikipedia. The rest look like wiki-mirrors and promotional posts/spam on other bloggers websites. The creator and an anonymous I.P. also went through many many Iraq related articles and posted ads for his book/website under "Further reading" and "external links" headers, hence the high number of references on google to wikipedia. The only thing virtually all the articles had in common with the book was some relation to Iraq Nobunaga24 12:39, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
