There are still more mentions out there but since this is already more than two dozen secondary sources taking note of his work, I'll pause there. I realize not all of them are currently cited on the entry--would love your guidance on how it could be improved--but was that the only issue? I'm really surprised such extensive notice in so many reliable secondary sources would not meet WP:BASIC. Can you advise? Thanks much. Innisfree987 (talk) 04:05, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Update to add that I've made some revisions to the entry, including adding a half dozen of these references that hadn't previously been cited on the page--would be grateful for feedback on the updated version. Thanks. Innisfree987 (talk) 17:12, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
