This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because he is a very notable scholar with many accolades and contributions to economics, political science, complexity, and more. I can move the page to my sandbox if that helps, but he is a member of the National Academy of Arts and Sciences, has published many books, and is major participant in international conferences and is a prominent public speaker.

I can't edit this page due a disclosed COI, so I'd like to suggest two extremely easy copy edits. First, in the infobox, there's a red link to a string that should never be a page. The topics should be unlinked and split up with something like a ubl. Second, there's currently a "citation needed" applied to the claim that he's advanced the concept of many-model thinking. This is trivial to find citations for, but the top secondary source on google (out of many, many options) is this article, which I've written out a citation template for: <ref>{{cite journal |first1=Paul M. |last1=Salmon |first2=Gemma J. M |last2=Read |title=Many model thinking in systems ergonomics: a case study in road safety |journal=Ergonomics |volume=62 |issue=5 |pages=612–628 |date=22 December 2017 |doi=10.1080/00140139.2018.1550214}}</ref>. Of course due to my COI I understand if these changes aren't made, but hopefully they're just uncontroversial copy edits. Thanks - Astrophobe (talk) 21:44, 15 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
