Delete fails both WP:Prof and WP:GNG. No news results [http://news.google.co.uk/archivesearch?q=%22Darren+Patten%22&scoring=a&hl=en&ned=uk&um=1&sa=N&start=10 here]. TerriersFan (talk) 23:17, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
Delete Possible Speedy A7, because I am not at all sure I consider that coauthorship as a plausible claim to notability. DGG ( talk ) 23:55, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
Comment: not quite malformed - xe did about everything xe can. The original rationale, which xe placed on the article talk page, is {{cquote|PROD removed by creator. No indication that he meets the criteria for WP:PROF, WP:BIO or any other notability guidelines. Only ref is to his own book. 98.248.33.198 (talk) 21:16, 24 September 2009 (UTC)}}

It took me a minute to realize you weren't referring to the former Blackwater Worldwide ;D 98.248.33.198 (talk) 03:40, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
I suppose I could have used "they" - but that feels weird. :) Tim Song (talk) 03:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
Delete – mistitled, non-notable drivel. ╟─Treasury Tag►consulate─╢ 07:14, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
Weak keep- Not drivel but doesn't seem to be particularly notable at the moment. He has written a book and, if the article is to be believed, it was his original idea. Even if it was co-authored it is an achievement at a fairly young age to get such a book published. It is not vanity publishing or a trivial subject. His appointment to lecturer at a fairly young age shows aptitude and accomplishment. The page was only created on 25 September there may be more to be added (this isn't a paper encyclopedia). --Alchemist Jack (talk) 11:32, 25 September 2009 (UTC

:*Can this be struck out or disregarded due to the obvious and rather boring conflict of interest? ╟─Treasury Tag►stannary parliament─╢ 16:05, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

keep-:If you believe it should be deleted go ahead , what harm is the page doing. Its all true. But you are the wikipedia gods right ,so go ahead delete it. I am only a teenager , and this was the first time creating this page so it wasn't exactly perfect, but it seems wikipedia has a rule for everything you type or put. But i still believe it should be kept , because this person will gain more notability in the next months to come. Its not exactly harmful to have this page and it isn't costing wikipedia anything ?This person deserves to have notability , try and put yourself through the 7 years of m years of medical school to try and achieve what he has .
