 * Delete. These two books are extremely frequently cited and would both easily pass notability guidelines for books, but they're both co-authored (by notable academics we have articles on), so they don't make as solid a WP:NAUTHOR pass as a pair of monographs would. I might be inclined to argue for a keep if he were still in academia, but he left the field ten years ago: so what we're looking at right now is already basically the fullest possible version of this article, and it's almost entirely sentences about the books - sentences that already exist on his co-authors' wikipedia articles. We'd be better off having articles on the two books. -- asilvering (talk) 04:56, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete does not meet our inclusion criteria for either academics or writers.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:55, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete agree with nom--and Asilvering. Subject doesn't meet GNG in his own right. Cabrils (talk) 21:22, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete subject does not seem to be notable in own right. While the subject is involved in two books which seem to be notable in their own rights, N is not inherited. AtD would be to redirect to one of the books is it had an article.  Aoziwe (talk) 13:54, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Flimsy RS here. As noted, the books which form a large part of the RS are co-authored. Not really featured in the articles, and other references are not RS. Deathlibrarian (talk) 10:27, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
