Notable per American Book Award per Wikipedia:Notability (awards). Slowking4 (talk) 19:49, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Two things.
  1. Wikipedia:Notability (awards) failed as a proposal. Please see the talk page of the proposal.
  2. Even if the proposal passed, the article fails the proposed criteria. Cind.amuse 22:22, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Notability (academics):
"2. 2.The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.";
"For the purposes of Criterion 2, major academic awards, such as the Nobel Prize, MacArthur Fellowship, the Fields Medal, the Bancroft Prize, the Pulitzer Prize for History, etc, always qualify under Criterion 2. Some lesser significant academic honors and awards that confer a high level of academic prestige also can be used to satisfy Criterion 2. Examples may include certain awards, honors and prizes of notable academic societies, of notable foundations and trusts (e.g. the Guggenheim Fellowship, Linguapax Prize), etc."
the American Book Award applies. if you truly believe this person is not notable, i invite you to take it to AfD. reverting User:Ser Amantio di Nicolao, who has 20 times your edits and twice your percentage editing article space, might give me pause, but i see not you.

  • The American Book Award is not an academic award or honor. As such, it is not applicable in establishing notability of this subject. I agree with you that User:Ser Amantio di Nicolao is a tremendous content editor with numerous articles and edits to his credit. That said, s/he has minimal experience and participation in interpreting Wikipedia policies and guidelines. And quite frankly, while your participation is most welcome (personally, I love your boldness), as a beginner, it is clear that you have little background working with policies and guidelines yourself. Regardless of the number of edits a person has, we're honestly all on the same level. Equal worth, separate and distinct functions. Keep doing what you're doing. And don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Best regards, Cind.amuse 19:53, 15 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
