This article about a fictional character seems like fancruft and does not seem to be notable - a search on Google Scholar only turns up a few articles regarding the author's work in general, not focused on this character. The article is almost entirely an in-universe biography. The article is also in sore shape generally, with no references supporting it and issue tags from 2010.

 * Delete. The nom has the right of it. Not ideal to redirect this one, unlike the others, since the top google hit for this name is actually a postdoc at Aarhus with a growing research footprint. -- asilvering (talk) 15:11, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete as lacking WP:SIGCOV in reliable independent sources, thus failing WP:GNG. Shooterwalker (talk) 16:23, 24 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete I agree with Roniius. There are no reliable independent sources PaulPachad (talk) 23:08, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
