Paul Solomon

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Having been notified of this article through WP:FTN, I found that the sourcing was entirely to acolytes and to primary sources stored by his eponymous/posthumous foundation. Looking for independent sources on this person, I find essentially nothing (there is a much more famous Paul Solomon who is not included at Wikipedia who shows up very high in search results, for example). As such, I do not believe this biography is worthy of inclusion at Wikipedia by any of our normal notability metrics. It looks like it was started as a soapbox and coatrack. jps (talk) 11:46, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete per OP. The sourcing is miserable, the article is full of nonsense and provides no evidence of notability. NightHeron (talk) 13:33, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete There does not appear to be the coverage in reliable, independent sources that we would need in order to write a biography. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 20:04, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete As per what other commenters have written. MaskedSinger (talk) 11:56, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete the entire article seems to be sourced to a rather small number of books which themselves appear to be merely promotional of Solomon's work; with a lack of independent sourcing and analysis, I'm not sure this qualifies for an article. -- Jayron 32 16:03, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete As OP says, article has scant sources and those that exist are linked to his associates. AtFirstLight (talk) 19:56, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
