This is basically an ad for a spiritual healer that's been tagged for notability concerns since 2011. Only two hits on Gnews, one of which is the Daily Mail, with zero hits for Ulli Springett. Most of the sourcing on the page is either unreliable (as in reads like an ad), regional coverage, or extremely hard to track down, and before I cut down the references was a victim of extreme WP:REFBOMB overkill CiphriusKane (talk) 09:02, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Upon further investigation, it seems the article creator User:DerekComber's entire Wikipedia career has been inserting Springett into Wikipedia articles CiphriusKane (talk) 09:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Poor referencing, reads like a self-promotion. Probable WP:COI and possible WP:SELFPROMOTE. Majority of books written are independently published. ExRat (talk) 19:45, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
