I do not see how this guy passes WP:GNG. It was created by the now-blocked Billy Hathorn, who seemed to work in tandem with some other Shreveportian (?) contributors, eg: see the equally non-notable Sarah Hudson-Pierce. Sitush (talk) 11:55, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, appears to be a WP:MEMORIAL for a man who wrote several books about his hometown of Shreveport Louisiana. No WP:RSes used or found, unless obit in the regional daily was written by a journalist; it has all of the hallmarks of a paid-for obit. But even if the obit was written by a Shreveport Times reporer, it's not enough to support notability.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:35, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
