Exists and there is some coverage, but doesn't meet WP:BIO or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 22:01, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep I see has added several reviews of his books to the article. Borden also has an entry in Gale's Contemporary Authors Online, and being included in a major reference work is a good sign that someone should be included in Wikipedia. I think that's enough to demonstrate a pass of WP:NAUTHOR, especially since he was active prior to the internet age and most sources are going to be offline. Spicy (talk) 08:13, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Just added new refs and added/amended text as some detail inaccurate (wife's name). Issue found is that Charles Borden is a common name, being a well known archaeologist and another being an attorney! Added reviews of books from Kirkus, but as these were written 50s/60s hard to find much else. Still think with what I have added that he is notable.Davidstewartharvey (talk) 08:31, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:NAUTHOR, because of the Kirkus reviews added to the article. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:04, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
