Other editors before me have cast doubt on this gentleman's notability. He appears to be great at what he does but the article looks like an attempted promotion of his books and videos. The article's existing sources are actually about larger events in which his presence was mentioned briefly, though he was named several times in the New Yorker article. That may not be enough for independent notability, as I can find no other significant coverage in reliable sources about him in his own right. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:48, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As per nominator. The whole thing reads like an ad.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 20:24, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete As above, also because none of the sources tick all the boxes in terms of WP:GNG. MrMarkBGregory (talk) 21:49, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for lack of significant coverage. Exactly why I tagged the article for notability previously. Jmertel23 (talk) 22:59, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There is a credible claim of notability, but the sources to establish the claim aren't in the article, nor could they be found in a Google search. Alansohn (talk) 05:12, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage to show they pass WP:GNG.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:28, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
