Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William Oosterman
Vanity article, apparently begun by Mr Oosterman himself (http://bible.cc/ecclesiastes/1-2.htm Ecclesiastes 1:2 springs irresistibly to mind). More importantly, it does not demonstrate the notability of its subject. Oosterman's latest book gets a grand total of 12 hits on Google http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&rls=GGLG%2CGGLG%3A2005-40%2CGGLG%3Aen&q=%22Is+It+Well+With+The+Child%3F%22+oosterman&meta=; his other book, ''Out of the Gutter'', gets four hitshttp://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLG,GGLG:2005-40,GGLG:en&q=%22Out+of+the+Gutter%22+oosterman, of which three direct to non-working links and the fourth...er... comes back to this Wikipedia article. I cannot find evidence of Oosterman's national notability. The "achievements" of speaking at conferences, preaching in foreign churches and "''being involved in campaigns''" are not what I would describe as notability; ditto the directorship of a non-notable lobby group. And the Google test? Well, a search for "william oosterman" achieves just 76 unique Google hits http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLG,GGLG:2005-40,GGLG:en&q=%22william+oosterman%22 (my local vicar gets 321). So far as the "college professor" test of  is concerned, Oosterman doesn't even appear to be a blip on the radar
