self published author, no actual evidence of notability (the article does say "[owner] of the world record title, "Most Books Published By A Teenager," The refs, as expected, are either press releases or notices. He seems to have written many of them himself. == Pleas DGG ( talk ) 04:35, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

• Comment Discussion page was created with a broken template. I've fixed the template and will leave any refactoring of text to the nominator. --Finngall ^talk 15:46, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
• Delete most sources are non-WP:RS, either self-initiated or blogs. Article seems more like an advert than a bio.--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 02:47, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

• Strong Keep Seems all unreliable sources are removed and more reliable news sources are introduced.The poet has published around 10 notable poetry books. Abrahamherews (talk) 04:27, 25 February 2017 (UTC)— Abrahamherews (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

You should be aware of the fact that "notable" has a specific meaning on Wikipedia - a little different than it is in the general language. None of his books is notable according to Wikipedia's definition. --bonadea contributions talk 20:22, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

• Keep Incredible source material such as press releases and self-written content has been removed from content present on page. New references have been added to further support facts presented throughout. 11:10, 25 February 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.191.128.46 (talk) — 99.191.128.46 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• Delete - the assertion that he was one of the youngest authors ever to be published has no secondary source, and furthermore it is manifestly incorrect given that he is self-published. The recordsetter.com website is not a reliable judge of this by a long chalk, as evidenced by their FAQ page. The sources currently in the article are mainly primary so there is no sign of WP:GNG or WP:NAUTHOR being met. Too soon for an article, I believe. --bonadea contributions talk 20:22, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
• Strong delete a non-notable poet who has not yet become impactful.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:52, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

• Comment Ozee appears to be under the impression that this is "his official Wikipedia Page". A common enough misconception of course; I wonder how it can be made more obvious to people that Wikipedia is not any kind of marketing platform. --bonadea contributions talk 23:09, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

• Comment Good evening, Wikipedia users. This is Aaron Ozee addressing you all. I was recently made aware that a few fans of mine had gotten together and established this page to represent my success in writing. Despite the fact that it was an honest and kind gesture, it appears great controversy has emerged since its creation and is now seen as a threat to Wikipedia. Please know that even though I would like to see the page remain, I understand that if it is the majority opinion of those remarking on this discussion board that it should not belong then so be it. I appreciate you all taking the time to review it and post your opinions. And you must all know that it was never in my intentions to introduce stress to this growing community over my page and that it might be better off deleted.
