Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anthony David Jacques
Sorry, Irelocus, but he doesn't (yet) meet the Wikipedia criteria for notability. Let me explain. This is an international encyclopedia, and in order to have an article here a person must be |notable, which basically means famous. The way we recognize when a person is notable is that other, unrelated, |reliable sources have written significantly ABOUT him. So anything he himself has written does not count toward notability. Things said by his publishers do not count for notability. That fact that he uses a "real" publisher is not enough for notability. Things said by most blogs do not count; that includes goodreads, because it basically writes about everything and everyone that is ever published. If his writings get reviewed in significant sources like major newspapers, or if he wins a significant award (significant means a truly notable award, not something like the book-of-the-month at his hometown library) - if those things begin to happen then we can consider an article about him. But at this point in his career he hasn't achieved that level of notability. In addition to the sources you cited (which are not actually 74 sources since many are duplicates), I also did a search and found nothing to make him notable. In other words, it isn't about your writing; there is nothing you can do to "improve" the article if the subject just doesn't meet Wikipedia's criteria. Maybe someday he will, but not right now
