Comment: He may be notable as an author. However there are some fixes needed first:1.Proper references to his book. I suggest using the WP citation tool, then remove the <ref> tag before & after. We need the list to have publisher, ISBN etc2.Reviews in independent, credible sources of his books. The obituary is not enough. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:07, 11 November 2024 (UTC)
