Comment: Some references refer to sources that the subject seems to have influenced; some citations are bare links; please fix that. --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 09:22, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Looks notable, but the references don't show it yet. Can you find more newspaper coverage of him, or more newspaper reviews of his books? asilvering (talk) 22:07, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
