[edit] Christopher Krovatin

Not particularly notable student author. It looks like vanity as his picture was uploaded as "Me in Bathtub" by the creator of the work. He has written a single book and directed some school plays. Doesn't look like he meets WP:BIO. Wickethewok 14:28, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

• Keep, his book was published by a division of Scholastic Press, and got a starred review from Booklist and a favorable review from School Library Journal.[1] Seems like a serious (if new) young adult author. NawlinWiki 16:13, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep He's at least as notable as quite a few authors who have articles here. Dlyons493 Talk 16:38, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per nom. That a lot of nonnotables have managed to stay on is no proper motive to keep all the cruft. --Svartalf 16:59, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per nom. Promising young writer, but not notable yet. His day will surely come. Ohconfucius 17:24, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable yet. Recury 17:25, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete strong possibility it breaches WP:AUTO. Even if not, nn writer. --Guinnog 18:28, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
