The result of the debate was keep. - Mailer Diablo 00:21, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Poorly written article about an author, which is likely vanity. Sales ranks for his books at Amazon seem to be well over 1,000,000. Around 900 googles for "Graham Diamond", but many appear to be "Graham-Diamond" (two separate people), no relation. In any case, thats very few for someone who has evidently authored so many books. Not sure if any are vanity presses or not. -R. fiend 04:12, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
:If the sales rank is over 1 million, surely it should be kept? perhaps with cleanup and/or unverified tags -- Astrokey44|talk 05:42, 16 January 2006 (UTC)oh never mind, thats a rank, not number of sales isnt it. I'd still say Keep for references such as [1] -- Astrokey44|talk 05:47, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Weak keep if someone cleans it up. Verifiable author including a series of 4 books [2]. —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-16 06:30Z
