Deletion of Michael Hemmingson

Comment: Subject does not appear to have received significant coverage in sources that are independent of the subject. Opinion is ''weak'' for me because the subject approaches criterion #3 of , since some of his work appears to have received third-party reviews

Comment: First of all, comments about my motives for nominating this article are inappropriate and potentially a wp:agf|failure to assume good faith. Secondly, it does appear that I was too broad in claiming the bibliography was "entirely self-published", so I apologize for that and have struck that comment. I will, however note that there is a difference between self-publishing and "listing every 10 page booklet he's ran off on the copier". Many small press publishers do engage in vanity publishing, but there's no way to determine if that's the case here. But even if some of these works are found to be notable (none currently have wikipedia articles, though the Vollman reader is a possible candidate) then that notability does not transfer automatically to this subject. I'll also note that being listed on Amazon is NOT sufficient evidence of notability per . Nor is notability transferred through association with other notable individuals

Comment: This article needs secondary sources. Right now, the only |reliable source I see in the article is http://sdff.bside.com/2008/films/thewatermelon_sdff2008 this trivial listing, which to me does not establish notability of the writer. Part of the challenge here is that the subject is a prolific writer, which makes finding sources ''about'' rather than ''by'' him a little more challenging. Some of the editors that have commented on here may want to review |the guide to deletion discussions and |arguments to avoid in deletion discussions to help insure that they are effective in communicating their opinions to the closing admin
