Article should have single external link as added as per Wiki's guidelines, "...For albums, movies, books, and other creative works, links to professional reviews." Link leads directly to professional reviews of Author's books. 74.73.59.242 (talk) 10:14, 28 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
The link in question is to advertising for the subject's books. Wikipedia:External links#Advertising and conflicts of interest says, "You should avoid linking to a website that you own, maintain or represent, even if the guidelines otherwise imply that it should be linked. If the link is to a relevant and informative site that should otherwise be included, please consider mentioning it on the talk page and let neutral and independent Wikipedia editors decide whether to add it." What the article desperately needs is citations to reliable sources. -- Donald Albury11:51, 28 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
