Lacks extensive coverage in multiple reliable sources. Also the person has contacted us asking to insert POV material on minor papers which convinces me that he really isn't a notable writer.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 10:53, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete All the coverage in the article (and what little else I can find) is in some way connected to the subject - in the absence of independent sources, fails WP:GNG. Also nothing to suggest a pass of WP:AUTHOR. Yunshui 雲水 10:56, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Fails GNG. - SchroCat (talk) 09:54, 16 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- "Fails GNG" isn't really an argument -- it's what we're trying to determine here. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 03:04, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It actually is one, although it's a bit of an out-there position. Some editors believe that the GNG is the only legitimate notability criterion, and that failing it is sufficient cause for deletion. RayTalk 18:30, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep -- varied and somewhat deep holdings of his books determined via Worldcat + a reputable publisher. Not sufficient as a shoo-in without other references, but certainly not an unknown either. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 03:04, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I see no cause for notability under WP:PROF and WP:BIO, I don't see anything to suggest a pass of WP:AUTHOR either - the highest holding is only 50 libraries for one of his books, with no hint of a review. Gscholar lists precisely 4 citations of said book, 3 of which are from articles by the author, and one of which comes from a long list with no commentary whatsoever.

- Delete. Passes none of the categories. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:52, 19 April 2013 (UTC).[reply]
