Keep Does not appear to meet WP:ENTERTAINER, but appears to be more prominent as an educator. Meets the basic requirement of WP:BIO -- the Guardian is a major newspaper, and gave him a full length obituary which describes him as a pioneer and a leader in the new circust movement.

Weak Keep--RayAYang gives a pretty good reason. But the article needs a rewrite and a paring-down, esp. in the Works section. Drmies (talk) 16:50, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Unnotable people don't get obituaries in The Guardian. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:38, 18 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
