Comment: Doesn't meet WP:NAUTHOR. His writings may be notable, but bit him. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 08:59, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not sure what this reviewer is thinking as this page clearly does cite significant coverage across multiple forums. The comment "His writings may be notable, but bit him" is unintelligible - perhaps the editor means 'not him', which is a very peculiar way to rationalise the notability of someone notable for their writings.
Romesh Dissanayake was born in Kazakhstan (1988) and is an award-winning Sri Lankan and Koryo-saram writer now based between New Zealand and Australia.[1] While he is best known for his literary fiction and poetry, he also came to prominence in Wellington for his work in the culinary arts.[2] His writing explores themes of identity, decolonisation and place.
