I cannot find any reliable sources covering the subject that would establish notability. A search for significant reviews of the subject's books are equally fruitless. The article was highly promotional in earlier incarnations prior to my remval of the material. This included material copied verbatim from a press release, and a solicitation to the reader to buy the subject's book by clicking on a link. Whpq (talk) 13:24, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - This article seems to have been created for promotional purposes, and even still is slightly promotional (links to info about Dr. Martin's books hosted on his website). I also was unable to find significant coverage in reliable sources to satisfy WP:BIO or WP:CREATIVE. If his work has been reviewed and cited as to satisfy WP:CREATIVE, I am unable to find such reviews. If reliable sources demonstrating notability can be provided, I may reconsider.
