Subject fails WP:JOURNALIST. Strong WP:PROMO feel, and I have a sneaking suspicion that the article was created by the subject himself. KidAd (talk) 06:14, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment - While the article itself is a miasmatic quagmire of bare URL's, book-link-spam and disorganization, I checked some of the bare links embedded in the article, and he seems he may in fact meet notability requirements, with coverage in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, CSNBC, Slate, Detroit Metro Times, an interview in The Nation (ok, a primary source, but a reliable venue). I am definitely leaning towards keep after viewing the sourcing (esp. in the way of bare URLs in the text). It needs to be seriously cleaned up, but that is not a valid reason for deletion. Will !vote once I continue to look deeper. Netherzone (talk) 00:31, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - Clearly meets WP:GNG. I have trimmed pretty much everything in the article other than the reliable sources. What a freaking mess! A testament to why COI editing (I'm convinced there is) leads to disaster on WP. He is indeed notable, given the sustained significant coverage in multiple reliable sources that are verifiable, such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, etc. He does NOT meet the criteria for notability as a photographer but he definately meets WP:GNG.

 * Keep - Good work ! I'm changing my vote to reflect the change.  Wiki Macaroons Cinnamon? 17:09, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
