The result was   no consensus. The 2 participants in this discussion have convinced me that the subject is nost likely notable but for a BLP there's not enough participation for a "keep" close. Ron Ritzman (talk) 03:01, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Non-notable writer who fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:BK. No fewer than six of his claimed books are from notorious vanity press iUniverse--that means that he has opened his checkbook six times in order to pay money to pose as a published author. Obviously, per WP:SPS, those titles cannot be used as WP:RS to support WP:N or WP:CREATIVE. Qworty (talk) 23:31, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment - Although he has published quiet a few items through iUniverse, has also been published through regular publishing channels. He is also verifiably a winner of the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award in 1988.  The article also lists two other awards for which I have not found any sourcing, and its not clear how important those awards are. -- Whpq (talk) 17:21, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment. confirmation of another award. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:42, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - With the link confirming a second award with coverage in a major newspaper, this is enough to establish notability. Thanks to Phil Bridger for dissing this up. -- Whpq (talk) 04:35, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
