- Comment: "Underground" publishing is quite common in Nigeria, so it's hard to determine his notability in Nigeria based on internet search. Nigerian Observer mentions five books that there doesn't seem to be any other reference to on the internet. But references are clearly needed, so I'm not sure. An expert in Nigerian literature would be very helpful. – Danmichaelo (talk) 16:46, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Update: According to a comment on Talk:Omohan_Ebhodaghe, the novels mentioned in Nigerian Observer are forthcoming novels, not published ones. That makes me supportive of deletion. – Danmichaelo (talk) 19:13, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Beyond that, there's nothing about being an "underground" writer that wins a subject a free pass from the requirements of WP:V. If there are no reliable sources discussing the subject in significant detail, then an article on him cannot be sustained. ῲ Ravenswing ῴ 19:56, 20 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete if he is London based you expect to at least passing coverage. Nothing in gnews or gbooks. Clearly fails WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 03:23, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
