Comment: If I can find enough, I'm leaning towards creating an entry for the book and suggesting a redirect there. There is already an entry for the movie based on the book, so if all else fails then it can redirect there or to Kevin_Mitnick#Arrest.2C_conviction.2C_and_incarceration.

Keep The subject was already a recognised expert before clashing with Mitnick. In any case, the idea that we should delete anything is absurd because the subject was a major part of the Mitnick takedown and so we would preserve on that account alone. Warden (talk) 11:19, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The event was significant and the topic of a lot of study (including multiple books and a film), and the subject of this biography played a key role in that event. Thus, a careful reading of WP:BLP1E does not call for deletion. Ray^Talk 19:41, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
