[edit] Chris Lindsay (author)

Chris Lindsay (author) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

This article appears to be an autobiography. After reviewing his website, I question his notabiliy. Cybergoth 16:57, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Weak Keep The books listed do get a meaningful number of Google hits. But the article needs a major cleanup.--Anthony.bradbury 17:51, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I'm not sure what the meaningful number referred to above is, when I searched for his best-known book (according to the article), I get 22 unique Google hits. And according to Amazon it has a sales rank of 2,591,643 and the cover picture strongly suggests something self-published. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:18, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete or userfy. It's a vanity page. -IceCreamAntisocial 00:28, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Unclear whether or not he meets WP:BIO but the page should be userfied and deleted. It is probably a good-faith mistake to have created the page in the first place. If it is not then we simply cannot tolerate autobiographical entries because of the underlying conflict of interests. Pascal.Tesson 01:22, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Of all the Amazon listings for Chris Lindsay, most are not ranked by Amazon, and those which are are in the "twilight zone". No sign of any independent reviews. Ohconfucius 06:47, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
