[edit] Jon Peniel

Jon Peniel (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

An unreferenced biography of an author with two books, both apparently self-published (though described as "published", the author's website indicates that publication of the four other books has been postponed indefinitely). The claim is also made that Peniel has worked with The Beatles, John Lennon, Elton John, the Moody Blues and Neil Young, however "there is no proof of this available to the public since no one knows Peniel's true identity." Fails WP:BIO. The product of a single purpose account. Victoriagirl (talk) 20:55, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete nothing at Google news archives. 30 Google web hits. Aamzon has 7 books for sale. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 23:47, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

To expand upon my overly laconic rationale, I found nothing suggesting the subject meets WP:BIO from verifiable sources. SUch information may exist, and I will revisit my opinion if new information is presented. The lack of any mention in Google News Archives does not give me a sense of confidence that there will be.

• Speedy delete as it violates every element of WP:5P and WP:BLP. Bearian'sBooties (talk) 00:22, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
