Comment: Only two sources were added since last decline and they do not show notability. Previous reviewer suggested the book may be notable but I see that page was created today by a different account. CNMall41 (talk) 02:44, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Sources are mostly what he states so primary and not independent. What is needed in in-depth coverage about him, not what he has written or said. It could be the book is notable if there are sufficient reviews (see WP:NBOOK). If so, I suggest an article about the book rather than him. S0091 (talk) 20:53, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
