This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

John Brierley (2 April 1948 - 2 July 2023) was the author of guidebooks about the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage routes in Spain, Portugal, and France. He was a chartered surveyor in Ireland who decided to devote himself to writing guidebooks about the various Camino de Santiago routes after discovering the Camino during a sabbatical from work. He published detailed maps and guidbooks about several Camino trails over the years. He kept his maps and guides up to date by walking Camino routes every year.
Upon his death, he was remembered with obituaries in The Guardian - https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2023/aug/04/john-brierley-obituary - and The Irish Times - https://www.irishtimes.com/obituaries/2023/07/17/an-appreciation-john-brierley/
