Kevin M. Quinley

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I'd like to a better consensus and possibly some improvement if possible; my searches found the following results here (fades by page 4), here, here, here, here and here (a search at Newspapers Archive also found nothing). He seems well known and notable in his field but I'm not sure if this can be improved and, if it can, it certainly needs better sources. Inviting the still most active users for comment.

 * Weak Delete. In the 9 years since this article was last up for AFD (see Articles for deletion/Quinley, Kevin M.), no sources have been added to indicate that Mr Quinley might pass WP:AUTHOR (which appears to be the relevant guideline).  He's written lots of books and articles, but we need evidence that other people have reviewed and commented on them. Tevildo (talk) 19:10, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

 * I have no knowledge of this page, person or edits. I usurped this username about a month ago from a retired Hungarian editor, so it's possible but not likely that it was him. I have no view on the matter. --  S l i m  J i m   Talk 04:43, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
 * With further inspection, I see now and although I saw the name "Geneb1955", I simply continued to look at the contributions thus seeing an active user. SwisterTwister   talk  05:15, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. I am very much in favour of deleting this article. In the many years since it has last been nominated, none of the many issues noted in the template at the head of the article have been resolved. I have also come back to this article many times, wondering what about it truly satisfies WP:AUTHOR. Merely having written a number of books isn't enough. Any time I've decided to tackle the problems with the article, I've been unable to resolve them, and it doesn't appear anyone else has either. Agent 86 (talk) 07:15, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
