 * delete. Let's do the routine thing and find his GS h-index to be 14 (why didn't the nominator save us the trouble?). Not quite enough for a reasonably well-cited field. Too early. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:45, 4 July 2014 (UTC).
 * Because the nominator doesn't know what the heck you are talking about? Staszek Lem (talk) 23:12, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete The special care we need to apply to those who are connected with fringe theories applies here. He does not come close to passing any notability guidelines.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:00, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
