Impressive article, but upon checking there is very little to be found about him. The main source, this article, reads like a press release and is labeled a "filed contribution". There are no sources at all in Google News and very few in Google in general (searched both with "Joe" and with" Joseph"). This is the only thing I find on Google Scholar, and it hasn't been cited yet by anyone apparently, so WP:NPROF isn't met. Fram (talk) 12:37, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete. Apparently self-published books seldom grant WP:NAUTHOR notability.  There is a brief bit about one of his books in the DSS Access source, and a review on TheAfricanDream.net, but I am skeptical that either of these is the kind of review talked about by the NAUTHOR guideline, and in any case it is less than we have looked for in past deletion discussions.  I see absolutely no sign of WP:NPROF, and little sign of GNG.  The article strikes me as rather promotional. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:38, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Per Russ Woodroofe. Given the way the article is written I believe the article might qualify for speedy deletion under WP:G11. Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:55, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Update: I have tagged the article for a CSD under G11 given how promotional the prose is. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:00, 15 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete - the G11 was removed, but this COI/UPE article is highly promotional about a person who does not pass WP:GNG or WP:NSCHOLAR. Onel 5969  TT me 01:09, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
