Nothing notable about the person apart from a brief stint as an advisor to a small political party, only one proper reference, and the article reads like a CV. It was flagged for notability issues in 2012 and hasn't improved significantly since then. Extua (talk) 20:09, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

- Keep - What hroest presented helps and if you do a bit of Googling you can find that he's regularly interviewed or featured as a subject matter expert in major major news publications - New York Times, The Guardian etc. Missvain (talk) 21:01, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

- He has indeed written some books, as you would expect for an academic, and he has written commentary pieces for a few newspapers and magazines. Is there anything special about his commentary or anything that he's done which marks him out as different from the average university professor? As it is all we have is a list of links to his profiles and a LinkedIn page. Unless anyone can improve the article (which nobody has done so far) this article should be deleted.

- Keep. I added to the article 20 published reviews of 5 books. That's 20 in-depth independent published reliable sources about O'Hara's work. It should be easily enough for WP:AUTHOR. As for Extua's "unless anyone can improve the article": see WP:DINC. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:07, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
