 * Keep and reduce to a stub if most of the article is a copyright violation. The subject is pretty clearly notable, per the sources (without scare quotes) cited in the article and many others found by Google Books searches for various spellings of the name.

 * Keep - I somehow doubt there is a copyright violation and suspect the Wikipedia article has been copied by other online sources (the WP article is 7 years old!). Maybe I'm looking at something different from the nominator, but the article seems to extablish the subject's claim to notability and source it from a number of published books.

 * Keep As a point of policy, our policies permit, as they should, off-line sources. Moreover, I've removed the copypaste tag at the article, the claim that our article was copied from the ovguide source is undercut, and badly, by the note at the bottom of said ovguide page that it received content from Wikipedia. (Ovguide is a relatively well-known wikimirror to me, athough I don't see it on our list of Mirrors and Forks.) --joe deckertalk to me 16:34, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
