self publishing company that gives no indication of notability. this is a print on demand service, which are essentially nonnotable in and of themselves, as their works are rarely notable and they have no input into the editing process, thus no judgement as to what is inherently worthwhile to publish Mercurywoodrose (talk) 04:44, 7 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Found some sources that Obama's half-brother published a book through Aventine. Added two sources (Post and LA Times) but there are many more, it received national coverage in top papers. Also NY Times mentioned it in a profile of DIY publishing houses. --

Who's cares about Obama's half-brother, or even Obama come to think of it? Notability is not inherited. - Sitush (talk) 03:46, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - if the consensus is that an author doesn't necessarily
WP:CORPDEPTH - the type of products they produce is irrelevant, really. I don't see "significant coverage" of the company itself so I'm not convinced it could be considered notable. Stalwart111 (talk) 03:43, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply

Delete per
WP:NOTINHERITED. They do not inherit notability from a guy who might or might not inherit notability from a guy who is his half-brother, never mind that the half-brother just happens to be the most powerful man in the world. Qworty (talk) 04:34, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply

Delete. Does not appear to be notable at all and the references do not directly discuss this publisher, but only one book published by them. LogicalCreator (talk) 09:26, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
