Fails WP:NACADEMIC. I cannot find this professor through internet search. TheLonelyPather (talk) 02:45, 17 September 2023 (UTC)

- Comment. His name appears to be misspelled: sources give it as "Yannick", not "Yannik". That could explain the difficulty finding sources. In case this ends up being kept, this should be fixed. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:18, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
- The creator of the article supplied me with a source here. Does it constitute as RS and sigcov? An extra set of eyes would be helpful. --TheLonelyPather (talk) 17:29, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- I personally think this source alone does not amount to WP:NACADEMIC. I am sharing my communications with the creator of the article, @Notrecercle, on the deletion of this article.

- The source describes him as a secondary school teacher and a writer of historical novels. That is definitely not what WP:ACADEMIC is for and he does not pass. He should also not be described as a "professor", as that word means something different and more specific in English than it does in French. To me it seems the only hope of notability would be to find enough published reviews of his books to pass WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:40, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. Doesn't meet any of the criteria of WP:NACADEMIC and WP:BASIC. I couldn't find any coverage beyond the already-mentioned RS Ouest France, which is likely also problematic on independence grounds per WP:INTERVIEW. Actualitté only offers a brief passage from the book, but does not constitute a review. Pilaz (talk) 14:54, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
