Article has a lot of issues, including failing WP:V. The fact that it's an autobiography pushes me to AfD. Wizardman 15:31, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. He seems to have published quite a bit, and with major academic publishers such as Routledge and Oxford University Press. So probably he is worth an article, but this one looks like having copyright problems .--Troikoalogo (talk) 16:44, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

 * keep afd is not an cleanup or improve.--Buridan (talk) 18:09, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. The article needs clean-up, but the subject is definitely notable per WP:PROF. In 2005 he has been awarded the Philip Leverhulme Prize (I have added a reference to the award cotation to the article). Also, fairly impressive GoogleBooks results - 190 hits. His webpage also says that he is an editor of several scholarly journals: "Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers" (confirmed at their website), "Geography Compass", "Geopolitics", "Polar Record", "Political Geography". Satisfies WP:PROF. Nsk92 (talk) 01:01, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep and cleanup as per Nsk92. --Crusio (talk) 06:14, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
