I'm not completely convinced this writer is notable. The only one claim to notability is being once nominated for the "Booker Prize". Is this enough? Also, (although unrelated to AFD or notability concerns) the whole of the article's text appears in her bio at "http://www.davidhigham.co.uk/html/Clients/Schlee". Who's the copyright violator.

- Keep. See the Wikipedia article at Man Booker Prize: "The winner of the Booker Prize is generally assured of international renown and success and, for this reason, the prize is of great significance for the book trade.[2] It is also a mark of distinction for authors to be nominated for the Booker longlist or selected for inclusion in the shortlist." Here is a review of Ask me No Questions: http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-27192021_ITM I see that the article has been deleted. This is probably one of the cases where an alleged copyvio is best dealt with by stubbing the article and removing the copyvio text, rather than by deleting the article outright. – Eastmain (talk) 01:11, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
