- Keep Google search of "Jeff Mayo" registered over 10,000 hits. He has authored several books, available at Amazon.com. [1] Dionyseus 08:38, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- An out of print 120 page book published in the 1970s doesn't make him notable. It seems this article is used as a promotion for the school listed for deletion. It is created by the same author. So this guy self published books in the 1970s, so what? CaliEd 02:12, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

- Delete 10,000 google hits are not all necessarily the same Jeff Mayo. No notability, no references = vanity. Sandy 01:02, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep has books with serious publishers Penguin (Astrology: A Key to Personality ) and a Teach Yourself Dlyons493 Talk 02:53, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, unfortunately. He has 6 books in the Library of Congress, and the publishers are not vanity press. Using a more targeted google ([2]) comes up with 1350 hits. Many of them are Wikipedia and mirrors, but there are some that appear to be astrology sites, including some reviews. He appears to have a certain amount of notability in astrology circles.
