The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. As a scholar, WP:PROF does not appear met. As a writer, WP:NBOOK is not met (see also ongoing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heisei (novel)). WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 15:05, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

- Not sure it is the place to discuss it, but let me try. Are Google and English language the only valid criteria here? There are also some references in Jstor, but it seems your check was not that deep (eg. in The Year's Work in Modern Language Studies Vol. 60 (1998). Stable URL:
https://www.jstor.org/stable/25833085 p. 191). As I am used to bureaucratic arbitrariness, I will take it easy anyway. Best regards. --—

- This is the right place as AfD is common in en.Wiki at least. But the work you cited just covers for one page, how long is it and is it significant coverage?

- I am not here to judge what is significant or not. A quick search using wikimedia library and I found other articles in Jstor, but in Muse, too. I have added the references to the Occitan language version of Wikipedia. Best regards. --—

- It is the responsibility of those wishing to keep the article to PROVE that WP:SIGCOV is met, so that others participating in this discussion can judge whether they are significant or not. The page you've linked to does not appear to be about the subject. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:53, 25 September 2022 (UTC)

- Delete All of the current refs appear to be trivial mentions or non-independent and are far from meeting WP:SIGCOV. WP:GNG is failed, with his other work being AfDed, this fails WP:NAUTHOR or WP:NBIO. VickKiang 01:08, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:38, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - His work's been cited a few times by others, but nowhere near enough to meet WP:NAUTHOR #1. They don't appear to meet any of the criteria of WP:NAUTHOR or WP:ANYBIO, and the coverage is all either trivial of non-independent so the subject fails WP:GNG as well. - Aoidh ( talk) 15:13, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
