 * Delete. Google confirms he exists and published a book of poetry "for private circulation", but I can find no sign of significant coverage in independent reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. Qwfp (talk) 10:09, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete No sources found online, and no citations to secondary sources. It's odd because User:Gargleyark created the article in 2007 and has been slowly expanding it since, as recently as a few months ago, and was notified of this AfD and has logged in after the AfD started, but for whatever reason is not participating here. Too bad as it looks like Gargleyark is probably the world's most knowledgeable person on this topic and could shed some light on why it is notable. -- GreenC  04:40, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Recommend extending a week or so to give User:Gargleyark (article creator) time to see it. -- GreenC  04:41, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment In my opinion, he's at least interesting due to his uncannily acurate reflections on the (for him) far future, and his poetry has recently been published publicly as an eBook. It's true he isn't the most noteworthy person on Wikipedia, but I certainly believe his work is of interest. -- User:Gargleyark 00:19, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
