I do not think this article on an Australian writer and historian meets WP:GNG or WP:WRITER. There is one footnote, to an article about the launch of one of his books. There are two other links, of which one is a deadlink and the other is to the subject's publishing company's website. The article has been tagged with notability concerns since 2009. I have not been able to find any coverage to add. Tacyarg (talk) 18:19, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete -- The author's books look to me like relatively light weight works, so that this should not be enough to make him notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:12, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete, as "significant coverage" for the purposes of WP:GNG should require more than a single short article about a book launch, plus a dead link. Fails to meet any of the criteria in WP:AUTHOR. Meticulo (talk) 17:43, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
