Article has no sources discussing him, I'm not finding any either on this Dennis Lee Foster. Doug Weller talk 13:49, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

:I missed the creator's comments on the article talk page saying that Foster had sent him copies of off-line reports on him, but obviously they are impossible to identify and a search for them turns up nothing. The creator also removed the BLP sources and Primary sources tags from the article.[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Dennis_Lee_Foster&diff=723901117&oldid=717962500] Doug Weller talk 13:54, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

  • Delete. The article claims he has published lots, but GS shows that nobody has taken the slightest interest in it. Xxanthippe (talk) 07:52, 3 November 2016 (UTC)/
  • Delete. He is a prolific author of how-to books, but to pass WP:AUTHOR they need to have significant reviews, and to pass WP:PROF#C4 they need to be widely used as textbooks in higher education. Neither appears to be the case. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:14, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
