Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because... It's not a repost of the previous page, but a new one taking into account the individual's change of status as a novelist. I note also that one of the contributors who provided the consensus for the previous page to be deleted was subsequently 'outed' as a sock puppet and banned from Wikipedia. --Grand Vitesse (talk) 20:06, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Grand Vitesse:. I take your point that there are significant changes since the article was previously deleted so have removed the tag. However, I'm not convinced he achieves the required notability as per WP:AUTHOR. If sources exist to show his notability then please add them to the article. Regards. --John B123 (talk) 20:28, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@John B123:. Hi John. Many thanks for reply – I'll work to bring the page up to scratch. Stay safe! Grand Vitesse (talk) 11:23, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There are 8 billion people on the planet

And I'm sure each one would like a Wikipedia page extolling their virtues and accomplishments.

I still think this falls *way short* of being a notable person, and should be deleted (again!)
