• Comment: There is too much wrong here:
    Collaborations with other academics does not demonstrate notability
    The link to "founding editor" does not prove that, he is just listed as one of many
    Too much advertising, not neutral tone
    He is not the focus of articles, he is mentioned in some Australian ones
    No major awards or similar Ldm1954 (talk) 22:25, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: Lots of sources, but not significant enough expansion. Needs a lead section, career section potentially etc etc. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 16:56, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
