Does not seem to meet WP:GNG or WP:BIO. There are currently three references in the article. The first is from a website whose stated mission is to "expose Creation Books’ (which Havoc founded) civil and criminal mistreatment of its authors." Not a great start... The second seems to be a more neutral source but it's unclear if Havoc is mentioned at all in the book. The third is Alan McGee's autobiography but the excerpt used clearly shows that Havoc is only mentioned in passing. Pichpich (talk) 22:49, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:NAUTHOR. The only thing I could find that is independent significant coverage is [https://babou691.com/2020/12/23/unreprinted-raism/ this review]. However, I am not sure if this publication should be considered a proper "magazine" or as a self-published source, because it's not clear what sort of editorial oversight is at work.4meter4 (talk) 17:04, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
