Tom Panarese

The entire article is the sentence "Tom Panarese is a high school teacher who wrote a novel called "Sayville." Googling for "Tom Panarese" + Sayville returns 25 hits. The novel is legitimate (sold on Amazon), but I call this one non-notable. Delete. jglc | t | c 18:29, 3 August 2005 (UTC)

• Weak delete nn author. Y0u (Y0ur talk page) Delete since book was published by vanity press. (Y0ur contributions) 18:46, August 3, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Amazon sales rank of ~800,000 convinced me of non-notability. My grandmother has a better ranking. ;) --Icelight 23:29, August 3, 2005 (UTC)

• User:Tpanarese (Tom Panarese himself, I assume) left the following message on my user talk page:

I found it funny that someone else set up a Wiki page about me. Yes, I did write a novel entitled Sayville, but to be honest, there's no need for a Wiki page. It was started by someone who has been more or less a troll on Wikipedia anyway. So, thanks for adding it to the delete pile and feel free to delete as you wish. Tpanarese 19:10, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
