Creativity theorist does not meet WP:NBIO- coverage consists of self-published sources, interviews or passing mentions in coverage about the books. MrsSnoozyTurtle (talk) 01:13, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment Hello MrsSnoozyTurtle, nice to see you again :). Can we remove the title creativity theorist to resolve the issue? Thank you. --Fiz327 (talk) 14:41, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello . Nice to see you too. If the issue was merely those two words, I would not have nominated the article for deletion. PS I have now placed this comment of yours in the correct location. Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle (talk) 22:29, 14 May 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete - Most notable achievement is as an author, but he's a long way short of the WP:AUTHOR tests. For general notability, the coverage in reliable sources is only tangential - not covering a notable achievement or contribution in his field. AntiVan (talk) 11:56, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - Appears to fail WP:GNG from my research. Non-notable podcasts, one interview in one good publication, other than that, passing mentions or non-reliable secondary sources. Too soon perhaps for this subject to have a Wikipedia article. Missvain (talk) 15:42, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
