Procedural AfD nomination as the page was PROD'd but was ineligible for such as there was a previous AfD on this page back in 2008. The PROD rationale was: "Doesn't look notable. The sources given are basically his employer, and people trying to sell books." TartarTorte 13:39, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

- Keep In addition to the article found by @Oaktree b: I also found this in CSM, and these minor articles [2], [3]. He may also meet WP:NAUTHOR as I found at least one scholarly review of his book [4]. BuySomeApples (talk) 21:59, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep I think with all the new sources found, the individual is notable. Oaktree b (talk) 04:01, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per above. Incidentally, I arrived at this AfD by way of Bus Plunge. I noticed that this individual had a long-running column in the Baltimore Sun, which alone might or might not not fulfill WP:JOURNALIST (haven't dived in too much), but it certainly adds to the currently established notability. —siroχo 23:21, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
