Not enough in-depth coverage to pass WP:GNG, and Cannot see how they pass WP:NSCHOLAR.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:31, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep. JSTOR isn't working for me right now but searching Google Scholar for intitle:"Manfred Markus" finds plenty of reviews of his books, enough for WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:20, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep: JSTOR issues and a need to over gender sterilize, as "they" almost confused me. The subject appears to be an author, did have co-authors (21 scholarly books and over 100 articles), and the article seems to not be in question that the subject is a male, married with children, and I have seen no evidence there is any gender questioning. If I am wrong the article needs to reflect that as a grave error. Being presented a Festschriften seems to be a milestone, even if some of the content does not reflect all major achievements, but does indicate peer reviews. However, the article states: In 1981 he was appointed chairholder as a full professor of English linguistics and medieval English literature at the University of Innsbruck, Austria, and has been a professor emeritus since 2009. Being a "chairholder" is not the same as being awarded a Named chair, but the notability criteria #5 states; The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon. If I or anyone else has issues with WP:NPROF, lacking any verifiable issues with the sentence, this is not the venue for discussion. If the subject held a named chair, it seems he passes the criteria for a stand alone article. --  Otr500 (talk) 04:06, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
