Article is about an author with no significant coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Knight of New Orleans. He is also an academic, but going by his resume, he is has been hired by a few places as a lecturer which falls well short on WP:PROF. Whpq (talk) 16:59, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. A whole lot of text and mostly irrelevant sources for a promotional article. 99.12.242.170 (talk) 18:52, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the following page for my overall defense--http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Knight_of_New_Orleans#The_Knight_of_New_Orleans Thanks. As there, I'd kindly ask for a chance to rework this page. I won't (dare) to edit it right now, but it's years old, created not by me in fact (but by the people who assigned a book award I won), and I'm ashamedly proud of its existence since 2008, though under-referenced and excessively written. I'd love the chance to fix all that, having learned a lot in the last 12 hours about good communal editing practice-but before I write forever, please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Knight_of_New_Orleans#The_Knight_of_New_Orleans Thanks!

Comment - The two discussions are obviously related, but the specifics for each article may be different so if you have specific information that shows Matt Fullerty meets Wikipedia's inclusion guidelines, it should be presented here. -- Whpq (talk) 21:17, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Follow the "Knight" link about to find out how the suthor of the article (who is also its subject) has been blocked multiple times for sockputting and so forth. And come on, an article which ends, "The screenplay for The Knight of New Orleans is currently with Meg Davis of MBA Literary & Script Agents" is just bedding for ((db-spam)), and I've marked it as such.
