[edit] Ahmed Mahmoud EL Kholy
Prod contested by writer of the article. Non notable poet whose only references are to vanity publisher International Library of Poetry/poetry.com. Most Google hits describe this outfit as a “scam” and a “rip-off” at worst and a vanity publisher at best. (See Wikipedia’s entry on poetry.com.) Also suspect conflict of interest; based on user name, Mr. Al Kholy has written this page himself. Dawn bard (talk) 14:15, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

- Delete A grand total of 5 Google hits. An obvious vanispamcruftisement. Blueboy96 17:29, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
- Question The writer of the article keeps deleting the the AfD notice from the page. Can the article be protected, or is that not an appropriate reason for protection? Thanks --Dawn bard (talk) 18:07, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
- Probably not, since it's only the author removing it. If he keeps it up, though, he'll be blocked. Blueboy96 18:32, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
- And he did it again. From an anon IP, but still--quack, quack. It seems to me that good faith can no longer be assumed. Blueboy96 14:06, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
