This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... Ted Patrick maps to the guidelines at WP:AUTHOR for the following reasons:
The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors. (Founding Chairman of ASME, 13 Advertisers took out ad in New York Times to laud Patrick)
The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique. (Holiday Magazine and his story warranted a feature article in Vanity Fair)
The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. (200+ issues of Holiday magazine with articles by notable authors)--Jaldous1 (talk) 17:40, 9 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
