Deletion of Nathan Dylan Goodwin

Comment: per #G11 as spam.  Harsh, I know, but that is what it is, and the COI SPA (that's what we call a Wikipedia:Single-purpose account|single purpose account with a |conflict of interest) who created it has done nothing else since registering in 2016.  '''''If''''' the subject accumulates genuine notability, other editors will eventually write an '''''encyclopedia''''' article about him here, but this is not it, not by a very long shot

Comment: Hello all - I am pleased to work with your discussion to improve the page so that it does not get deleted. This is the first page that I have created and I am a little crestfallen to find that I have not correctly done it, as it is done in good faith. Yes, I am his husband, but this is because I am the other half of the company set up to promote, market, distribute and maintain his public profile (in place of an agency or publishing firm). I will take any action to remain within wikipedia policy, where I have fallen short. I will monitor comments here and improve the page to avoid deletion. With regard to the , I noted the guidance but kept the post strictly to advocacy comments - you will note that opinions are given in interviews and not by me. I am creating this page 'professionally' impartially as CEO of The Novel Guys Ltd. but explicitly noted my relationship to the subject in the information box

Comment: I've deleted a few external links, unnecessary italicising and a wiki link. I note that there is oI - the info box names his spouse as Robert John Bristow, and the creator of the article is Rjbristow. In terms of sources, the most I've found so far (apart from reviews in blogs) are reviews in genealogy society newsletters: ''The Livermore Roots Tracer'' Vol 38, No 3, August 2018, p 7 http://www.l-ags.org/tracer/Vol_38_3.pdf; the ''Boulder Genealogical Society Quarterly 2015 Edition'', Vol 47, No 3, August 2015, p 56 https://books.google.com.au/books?id=zMecCgAAQBAJ&pg=PA56&lpg=PA56&dq=%22Nathan+Dylan+Goodwin%22+review&source=bl&ots=EWjj80KOsK&sig=ACfU3U0zLfCXMxYIgjbKHD7FUDJqcU2smA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjQtfLZruXiAhVt8XMBHdgTB-A4PBDoATACegQICBAB#v=onepage&q=%22Nathan%20Dylan%20Goodwin%22%20review&f=false; and on a website called ''Genealogy Magazine'' https://www.genealogymagazine.com/nathan-dylan-goodwins-latest-genealogical-mystery-the-america-ground/. It's not looking like enough for either  or , so far

Comment: Apologies, I hadn't quite finished: "If a subject is Wikipedia:Notability|notable and the content could plausibly be replaced with text written from a Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view, this is preferable to deletion." as per your ref to #G11. Pursuant to this, I shall vet the text for any areas where there might possibly be deemed not to have a neutral point of view. This will not affect referenced / cited elements. Thank you for making a constructive steer on this article on this point

Comment: I agree that the article still contains promotional language, and is written from the point of view of someone connected to the subject. However, I do see "multiple independent periodical articles or reviews", sufficient to satisfy . Genealogical society journals are periodicals. Some of the reviews included are from societies of which Goodwin is a member (Kent and Norfolk), so 3 of the reviews can't be considered independent. That still leaves at least 14 reviews from places such as Boulder, Colorado; Bergen County, New Jersey; Livermore, California; Cardiganshire, Wales; Wakefield, West Yorkshire; and Cheshire; as well as national UK genealogy magazines ''Family Tree Magazine'', ''Your Family Tree'', and ''Your Family History Magazine''. I don't see a requirement in  for reviews to be in "book journals", and newspaper reviews are generally considered acceptable, so I don't see why genealogical journals and magazines shouldn't be, especially when they are from such a wide geographical range and include national titles. The article does still need clean-up, and it would be better to have information from the reviews about the books and characters

Comment: per  and because it fails , .  This is a self-published author of a series of mystery novels about genealogy and it has as serious  and  issues.  My primary objection, however, is that tit lacks sources.  Most of the sources are genealogy newsletters an magazines, and it seems unlikely that they exercise significant editoral control over their writers.  A proquest news search turned up only one hit on his name.  It was in the The News-Gazette (Champaign–Urbana) (Mystery novel is genealogy case study,  Griffis, Joan. News Gazette; Champaign, Ill. Champaign, Ill11 Nov 2015: B.7. ) and it looked OK at first.  3 paragraphs about the book that look OK until the final sentence "More information can be found on his website at nathandylangood... " shows that it is a press release.  It turns out to be one of three press releases on geneaology that the paper ran as a group, the other two PROMOted the research services of "The American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC).... click on the Learning and Resources link for access to other material related to veterans. Teachers will find links to many helpful classroom activities." and the "The Illinois State Genealogical Society (ISGS)...  clerks can also provide copies of death certificates but they usually are certified copies and are more expensive than the amount charged by ISGS. For example, Cook County charges $17 as shown on their website at http://tinyurl......"  It is a geneaology column: Queries, genealogical questions from researchers and genealogical materials readers would like to share will be printed in this column free. Joan Griffis may be reached via email at jbgriffis@aol or by sending a letter to Illinois Ancestors, c/o The News-Gazette, P.O. Box 677, Champaign, IL 61824-0677."  Very few of the sources on the page are linked; not necessarily a problem, although the fact that these are such minor, hobbyist publications is.  Sources on that page  that are linked, such as https://www.hastingsobserver.co.uk/news/new-book-on-hastings-in-wartime-out-this-month-1-1451244  New book on Hastings in wartime out this month are unsigned, making it unlikely that they were written by a staffer of the publication, and, yet again, the closing sentence makes it clear that teh article is PROMO for a book signing.  Fails
