Delete Pure vanity fluff, zero notability, zero encyclopaedic value, fails WP:BIO. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:44, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete as G11. Let's get this closed quickly. This is blatant PR. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 14:40, 18 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article sounds promotional and over hyped. Google scholar shows only 36 total citations, while the article makes it seem like many universities are using his 2 books. If this was the case, there should be hundreds of citations. Article is also full of grammar errors and bad English Expertwikiguy (talk) 09:48, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
