The part here is ''has work'''s''''' - this is just one book not works plural. I admire the effort here, and believe any published author has done well - but we need '''third-party''' information from |reliable sources. For information, in the UK it is a legal requirement that any book with an ISBN has a copy at the British Library - so just being in a collection really does not imply notabilty. For further information both of my parents are multiple (by wich I mean > 300 books in my fathers case) published writers, and one has a Wikipedia entry, so I do know whereof I speak, both as an admin on Wikipedia and as someone with more than a passing knowledge of the publishing world
