 * Delete one fairly niche press review of his work seems to be the only independent source on him, that is not enough to justify an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:50, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG due to a complete lack of sustained WP:SIGCOV in independent reliable sources. The article was created by a WP:SPA and functions as free advertising for his books. It should be swiftly uprooted to eliminate corruption of the purpose of Wikipedia. Newshunter12 (talk) 23:36, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. There was no consensus 11 years ago, but I think the arguments by and others were stronger. One major source has not been considered "significant coverage". Bearian (talk) 21:48, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Back in 2009 I argued on the basis that his books were in almost no libraries. This is 11 years later, so I checked again. Hist three books are atill in almsot no libraries: 13, 4, and 2 Worldcat libraries. Tho not all evangelical college libraries are included in worldcat, all the well-known ones are, and not one school of any sort has a copy of any of the books except Redeemer University College, which has his first book   DGG ( talk ) 00:12, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - clearly there has been time for his works to have made more of an impact, and they haven't, so delete as per failure to meet WP:SIGCOV or WP:NAUTHOR.  Onel 5969  TT me 21:34, 25 December 2020 (UTC)
