Antony Theodore
Article created by same anon IP as three created & now VFD'd at Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Hemangi Sharma articles & Wikiquote:Votes for deletion/Lalitha Iyer and with links to Tapan Kumar Pradhan and there may to need to beware of promotional contributions by COI/UPE, hoaxes, misuse of citations; though it is possible for example for an unconnected book publisher to have legitimate inteterest in Poetry and it is quite possible for anyone to create a series of articles connected to the same theme. In this case there is the the wikidata item d:Q107212628 and the enWP article w:Antony Theodore. While the source d:Q107212628 looks reliable some sources have been left to linkrot or be usurped. While the ISBN's of some books seem to enable them to be found on the (tm)Amazon they seem to be generally difficult to find on Worldcat or Open Library. A particular issue exists with Thomas Merton's mystical quest for the union with God, the oclc link being to On open library the related this is linked from   (OL1518671M)  to  on worldcat. But its the enWP article and its creator that gives cause for concern. The examination of the talk page reveals the enWP was originally draftified and then TNT'd although the subsequent (current) mainspace version seems to be accepted at despite problems. However I remain minded the enWP's article creator's introduction to the Thomas Merton article may have been promotional. I also note one of the subject's book's has an image uploaded by a declared book publisher who has been involved with other articles created by this anon IP. Due to possible deletion of articles which might indicate there 'might'' have been collaboration to promote certain works. But this case far from clear. -- 01:11, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
