Doesn’t meet WP:NPROF. Also WP:CONTENTFORK and WP:SOAPBOX, this article is supposed to be a biography, but the article seems mostly about promoting his views on Communist mass killings, so it is more a content fork of Mass killings under communist regimes, than a biography. Move most of the content to that article per WP:CONTENTFORK and WP:SOAPBOX, then delete per WP:NPROF. Nug (talk) 21:44, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep meets WP:NAUTHOR due to multiple reviews of his books. Citations are quite high for the field, which would satisfy NPROF on its own. If you object to the content, the correct response is to fix the article rather than delete it. (t · c) buidhe 21:57, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Since the article is not going to be deleted as the subject is obviously notable, I suggest withdrawing the nomination. (t · c) buidhe 22:06, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Clearly notable and well sourced. Some sections could be re-written or moved but still is notable. Seacactus 13 (talk) 01:23, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: meets NACADEMIC. The Ace in Spades (talk) 11:49, 15 December 2020 (UTC) — The Ace in Spades (talk • contribs) is a confirmed sock puppet of Waskerton (talk • contribs). [reply]
Keep, per reasons by those given above who want to keep this article. Davidgoodheart (talk) 05:35, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, as pointed out by buidhe, they meet WP:NAUTHOR. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:02, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
