Not sure this meets CSD edit

Author has been independently reviewed here and here. If deletion is necessary, perhaps PROD or AfD, but based on two independent reviews of this author, I am removing the speedy tag. Pianotech 14:27, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

My mistake, I realized after posting that it was a PROD, not a speedy. Pianotech 14:28, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Additionally, Treasure Publishing does not appear to be a vanity press. Pianotech 15:05, 19 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have several articles expressing the author's notability among peers and experts, and believe he meets the notability criteria. Johnson is a nationally recognized expert in several areas having delivered papers at venues such as the 2007 County of Los Angeles Child Abuse Prevention Conference and the 2008 State of New York Fatherhood Conference. He has been featured in many national publications such as New Man Magazine, Crosswalk.com, Christianity.com, Christianity Today’s Men of Integrity, and Proverbs 31 Ministries Magazine. Contact me if you would like to have proof emailed to you. T geier (talk) 13:48, 21 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

The only proof required would be references. :) If you could list a few more (perhaps from Christianity.com, Crosswalk, etc.), that would definitely give the article sufficient weight, as those are reliable third party sources. Pianotech 18:48, 21 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
