Looks like blatant promotion to my eyes. Article has been speedy deleted for promotion 3 out of 4 times in the last 12 months. This version was tagged for speedy under g11 and an IP removed it, forcing AFD. A quick scan through the at a random sample of the numerous articles posted states nothing about the subject of the article, just writings on various subjects. The references section simply lists a couple of papers the subject has posted, so the biography appears to lack sources. Looks to fail the notability criteria in WP:PROF, though I might be wrong on the front. Dolescum (talk) 01:04, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
