Biography of a person wholly unnotable. The article merely summarises the person's viewpoint of a medical topic he wrote in a book. A significant chunk of the latter part of the article is completely unrelated to the person. --TBM10 (talk) 21:25, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Googling the tract he supposedly authored just shows mirrors of this articles (or Books LLC publications that just take content from Wikipedia).

- Delete: Doesn't seem to meet WP:BIO or WP:PROF, based on available sources. Without good sources, this will just be another coatrack for the circumcision dispute. MastCell Talk 00:28, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
- Delete per lack of established notability, I didn't get anything on my websearch either. SwisterTwister talk 05:16, 27 June 2011 (UTC)
- Keep. Are the "delete" proponents above seeing something different from me when they check the Google Books search link spoon-fed in the nomination?
