This article is not quite the same as was deleted per previous AFD as it contains more recent informationhe has now been published offline. So rather than overturn the previous AFD or delete as substantially identical, I am opening a fresh AFD to see if consensus has shifted. ϢereSpielChequers 12:30, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep. Remember, the medium we are reviewing is the EZine; though not binding precedent, I think everyone needs to review the other work we have approved, explicitly, or implicitly (through acquiescence), as a Wiki Community. I just went through the letter “A”, for Authors, and this is what I have found. Folks, if you are convinced that this author is notable and the article reliably sourced – Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews – then only no sense of shame would allow you to not approve the article on Mr. Falcone. And look at this one:Jami Attenberg. Another reason the Falcone article meets the Wiki standard. Other articles serving as persuasive precedent for allowing the Falcone article: Mohammed Naseehu Ali (notability and source reliability on par with the article we are discussing); Steve Almond (though the article has a little more style, this author’s work and development as an artist is on par with Mr. Falcone); Lisa Alther (notability and source reliability on par with the article we are discussing); Brian Antoni (I see little difference between the notability of Mr. Antoni’s work, and Mr. Falcone’s, and Mr. Falcone’s seems better documented); Shaila Abdullah (which was flagged as having potential notability problems over a year ago, and which has been left up, showing disparate treatment of subjects); Jacob M. Appel (you’ve allowed this article to stay up since October; his work is about on par with Mr. Falcone’s); Rilla Askew (ditto with this one); William Austin (author) (ditto with this one); Jody Azzouni (ditto with this one); based on these examples, I vote to retain the article.

Strong Keep. For the reasons articulated above. The numerous sources used in the article provide sufficient evidence of the notability of Mr. Falcone and the credibility of his work.
