  • Comment: Could the author please disclose their COI before resubmitting, thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:34, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please cut down on the unnecessary WP:REFBOMBING. Eg. the first three sources are the same, there is no need to cite all of them, just cite whichever is the original. Similarly, we don't need three sources to verify that he works at KCL, or four that he's written a book. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, which might require two sources being cited, otherwise one solid source ought to be enough to verify most statements.

  • Comment: I don't see anything in the draft suggesting notability per WP:AUTHOR or WP:NACADEMIC, so we're reliant on WP:GNG. However, the sources are primary, save for one secondary source (cited three times in different publications), which is not enough to satisfy GNG. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:32, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please do not cite user-generated sources (LinkedIn, Twitter, Goodreads), they are not considered reliable. Also, Amazon is a retailer, not a source; if you wish to cite a book, find a better source for it (eg. the publisher's website). DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:50, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
