His published books are not even in WorldCat. Not conceivably a notable author . DGG ( talk ) 05:13, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I did some searching and I can't find anything to show that he's particularly noteworthy. His books are self-published and while that doesn't mean that they (or he) can't be notable, that does mean that they're less likely to have gained notice. I just can't see where he's gained any true coverage anywhere. Also in full disclosure, I want to add that I've blocked the article's creator for a COI username as they appear to be representatives of Mycottleville.com, which is a local business/events catalog that also offers service and business profiles.

Delete (and feel free to salt too). I know of notable photographers whose books aren't in Worldcat, but nothing about this article suggests that this person is among them. -- Hoary (talk) 23:39, 10 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
