I don't see the relevance of this article. I am not aware or made aware of any major mathematical results by the author. Many mathematicians with lower Erdos numbers have no Wikipedia page nor need one and I do not see why this mathematician needs one.

The article's subsection "Politics" is totally irrelevant. Readers need not be made aware of the political positions of every celebrity, athlete, and mathematician.

I don't see the "Important Works" subsection as any more than an advertisement. It is not at all clear why these works are important to anyone other than the author. They are simply textbooks use for class instruction as far as I (and the reader) am aware. If there are significant results original to the author, then this should be made clear in this section.
