Delete. The sources are from his own site? Hell In A Bucket (talk) 02:45, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, meets WP:AUTHOR, has many incoming links. And that nom statement is not a reason to delete. Better to tag it with {{Primary sources}}, or {{BLP sources}} or try to find secondary sources yourself. -- œ ^™ 05:35, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am actually basing this off of [[1]]. A very similiar afd discussion. The above co authored 22 transformers comics and was credited as such and result was delete. Hell In A Bucket (talk) 05:37, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, that's fine, you did nothing wrong.. I realize it was nominated in good faith. We'll see how the afd goes, if turns out that consensus is to delete then it gets deleted. no big whoop. -- œ ^™ 05:49, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Appears to meet WP:AUTHOR, extensively reported on in genre press (much of which is offline). Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 04:52, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

Delete unless more sources are found. It is possible to cite a magazine or newspaper. See {{tl:Cite magazine article}}. If that is done, I will be satisfied and this vote should be interpreted as a keep. Gosox5555 (talk) 00:13, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Newsday [2]. School Library Journal [3]. New York Times best seller list [4]. NYTimes again, for a different book [5]. Washington Post [6]. School Library Journal again, this time a review [7]. USA Today best seller list (a third book) [8]. Jerusalem Post review. [9]. If you want more cites, you'll have to promise me two keep votes.

Keep The reviews are enough to answer all possible objections--frankly , I was surprised to see them--I had not realized these follow-ups got this much coverage. . Possibly the CM discussion should be rechecked also. DGG ( talk ) 02:16, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, I'll have to run through my Journal collection, but Mr Greenberger is fairly notable in the comics field, his doings have been documented in dusty old magazines that count as reliable sources. There'll be a report on his departure from DC somewhere that will give a career overview. I just hope it isn't in one of the issues I'm missing. Hiding T 08:42, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Found a two page feature, will update article accordingly. Hiding T 09:12, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
