[edit]

The advertisement tag should be left there, as this is not the language appropriate of an encyclopedia article and reads like promotion. I am always a little dubious if an article is created by someone and this is the only contribution they ever make to Wikipedia - it makes me, rightly or wrongly, suspect it's a vanity entry. I found a website on Google that seemed to refer to this person, so removed the notability tag, but have added that references are needed. Boleyn (talk) 07:03, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have never contributed to Wikipedia before, but noticed that the entry for the writer Christopher Andersen is being criticized for resembling an advertisement. I don't quite see why, since the article merely states his background and lists his books. No opinion seems to be expressed one way or the other. Andersen has been around for something like 40 years--anyone can verify this by looking him up on Google, his books on Amazon (U.S.), Barnes & Noble, etc. as well as articles by him and about him, TV & radio shows he's done, etc. Doolittle2 (talk) 22:47, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
