Fails WP:BIO. The sources that mention the subject are actually about other subjects, not the subject of this article directly. I see issues here with puffery via REFBOMB. The author also wrote an article about a company founded by this person and I have COI concerns around that. - Who is John Galt? ✉ 15:42, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

- Delete "a professional in the field" simply means he works, I don't find reviews for the one book he wrote and the rest doesn't seem much beyond routine coverage. Oaktree b (talk) 17:01, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete There doesn't seem to be much significant coverage on the subject, probably fails WP:BIO. All the given references mention him only in passing and his book is not particularly well-known. It seems that his most noteworthy accomplishment is founding the company TrustedID, later acquired by Equifax. Possibly merge into Equifax. GoldMiner24 Talk 17:32, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
