 * Keep, because this type of content does not typically inspire cognoscente, I think we as an encyclopedia should lower the criteria for inclusion slightly. Pwolit iets (talk) 11:14, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Could be notable in the field, but this supplies no evidence even of that. (I'm willing to be convinced ...) Also, it's a WP:BLP with zero WP:RSes, and we're not actually allowed to do that - David Gerard (talk) 11:22, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Added WP:RS to the page, removed self-published source. Kawayama (talk) 15:14, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
 * You added what appears to be another self-published source - David Gerard (talk) 20:42, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - I don't even see one good reliable source providing significant coverage (in the article or via searching), nevermind enough to satisfy WP:GNG. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 12:45, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete I see no evidence of critical analysis of Croax's work anywhere. Mduvekot (talk) 17:07, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Just another BLP without independent reliable sourcing. While the article has 16 references, two are to a self-published book, two are to a self-posted (non-notable) award announcement, eleven to pages offering the subject's work for sale, and one to a fundraising page supporting the subject. This is an abject sourcing failure, especially for a BLP. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006.  (talk) 19:31, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
