Wikipedia articles must prove that they are notable enough, and people  
unfamiliar with the subject must be able to verify it. Otherwise, it  
fosters self-promotion.

Wikipedia has rules which may seem unfair or unbalanced at times, but  
they're mostly logical with regards to the project's integrity (and not  
necessarily usefulness).

Administrators will often gladly provide copies of deleted articles.

D got a lot of press and a book, so I think that's highly unlikely.
