[edit] Osama American in Bondage
Non-notable book published by vanity press AuthorHouse. Author claims that the book won the "Pulitzer Prize in Letters for the American Experience," but no such Pulitzer Prize exists. A search for the book title or author's name on the Pulitzer Prize's website produces no hits. Searching "Osama American in Bondage" -wikipedia on Google produces only 64 unique hits, and the only ones that mention this "Pulitzer Prize" are postings by the author on blogs and whatnot. The book has an amazon.com SalesRank of 2,578,291. Elmer Clark 05:22, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete A7. No claim of notability besides a made-up award. --Daniel Olsen 05:38, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Correction to User:Elmer Clark: Actually, he doesn't claim it won a non-existent award. He claims it was nominated for a non-existent award. So, absolutely non-notable. Defintely delete. Emeraude 11:53, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
