Unref article on recently deceased person. Succesful, but doesn't meet
WP:PROF or
WP:GNG.

- Keep. Hundreds of citations on several books and articles in what I believe to be a low citation field looks like a pass of WP:NPROF C1. That's supported by a volume of the Journal of Aesthetic Education that was dedicated to him. His books are widely held by libraries according to WorldCat, and I expect that he'll also pass WP:NAUTHOR. I've added two reviews so far. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 22:43, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per meeting WP:ANYBIO, WP:PROF, and WP:AUTHOR as explained above. Great example of WP:HEYMANN. This is a terrible nomination. The subject is not recently deceased as claimed above (died in 1998). I'm curious, did the nominator do a WP:BEFORE? His bio is included in multiple encyclopedias [1] [2]. Google scholar [3] reveals his works are highly cited. TJMSmith ( talk) 23:53, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

- Keep. I can only assume BEFORE was not done, since it's not hard to find refs like the ones I just reformatted ( [4]) which clearly suggest he is notable, having had other scholars write articles about him. He clearly meets WP:PROF. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:01, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
- Withdraw nomination per all above. Thanks for your hard work. Boleyn ( talk) 06:44, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
