One citation... does not appear notable to me. RobP (talk) 18:54, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article was created by a SPA. My guess is the subject himself, or someone close to him. See: here RobP (talk) 18:58, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I can find nothing to indicate this subject meets either the general or academic notability standards. A News search finds only a short interview from 2015 and a passing reference in a piece from 2011. Neither is in English so I can't be certain what they say, but neither is substantial. JSTOR does not list a single publication of his. I searched for evidence of the awards that are mentioned, but without success. The article is replete with impressive-sounding claims that do not appear to be supported by evidence.--Gronk Oz (talk) 19:39, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - one citation and the article was written in 2010 and it is still here. Shame on us. And sadly it does appear to have been a SPA that wrote it. As Gronk Oz says the wording is clearly glowing and no citations to support those glows, when clearly there should be. Also notice the name L Ron Hubbard which always sends red flags up the flagpole for me.Sgerbic (talk) 19:51, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
