  • Delete per nom Checked things out myself; they're a real person, with real published books, but almost nothing at all has been written about them in reliable, independent sources, from what I can see. --Jayron32 15:57, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Keep. WP:AUTHOR: {{tq|The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work}}. Plenty of reviews the books. eg.

  • Keep - A Google search found ample coverage by reliable sources of the subject and/or the subject's books. I added some sections to the article, but it needs more work, including inline references. That does not, however, negate existing reliable sources found that clearly show notability. Meets WP:GNG and passes WP:BASIC. AuthorAuthor (talk) 03:24, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Keep: per accessible book reviews. ​​​​​​​𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝟕𝟐𝟖🧙‍♂️Let's Talk ! 12:58, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
