Please stop tagging articles and reverting when someone removes them. It is mindless. It often only takes a few minutes to fix the problem. SlimVirgin talk|contribs 18:22, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

You're being disengenuous. This edit did not resolve the issue. You just removed around stuff. The article is still primarily sourced only to himself. Also, don't mark edits as minor when they're not and don't edit-war.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 18:30, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
(ec) I'm sorry, I should apologize for calling it "mindless." It's just that taggging is one of my pet dislikes on Wikipedia, because it defaces articles when they're often quite easy to fix. It should only be used when all else has failed. But regardless, I shouldn't have referred to it the way I did. SlimVirgin talk|contribs 18:38, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
Apology accepted. As an article writer myself when time permits, I'm no fan of tags. However, in this case, I searched for third party sources about Cook, but was unable to come up with any. As long as there are no independent sources on Cook, the article remains a self-promo article, thus an article diametrically inopposite of what Wikipedia is all about. Until this problem is resolved, the tag must remain in order to 1) alert other editors to this problem so that it can be rectified and 2) alert readers that this is far from an ideal article. You removed the tag twice. Kindly replace the tag until the issue is resolved. Signing off now. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 18:45, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
I'll take a look around tomorrow to see if I can find secondary sources. I'm thinking with three books published, he's likely to survive an AfD, and if that's true, we can't tag him, because it would mean the tag staying on indefinitely. But there may be other sources out there, which would solve the problem. SlimVirgin talk|contribs 02:32, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Replied on article talk page (where this discussion is c&p), the correct forum for this discussion.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 14:13, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
