Doesn't appear to meet WP:AUTHOR or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 21:50, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. I can't find any significant coverage. I suspect his books are self-published. The publisher is listed as "Polymaths Press", and it appears to publish his books only. Jfire (talk) 02:37, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. In my own WP:BEFORE, I found (and have added) a number of pieces of coverage relating to the subject. However, it is all relatively promotional (announcements about book launches and the like) and all in local/regional news outlets (primarily The Kerryman). Apart from "letters to the editor" type stuff, I can find nothing relating to the subject in national news outlets (nothing in Irish Times, Irish Examiner, etc). The biographical detail in the article is unsupported by anything at all (nor can I find anything to support it - suggesting that SIGCOV/NBIO is not met). The WP:COI and/or WP:SPA concerns do very little to help. Mine is a "delete" recommendation... Guliolopez (talk) 15:09, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. All the coverage is currently local. If you find something wider, ping me. Bearian (talk) 13:55, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
