Needs more sources

I was able to find a few sources but as it stands I'm not sure if this article would pass WP:GNG. @Robinmarkphillips, if you know of any other sources like a newspaper or a book that mentions this author try and put them in the article. Right now if this article was sent to WP:AFD I don't think it would be kept. Dr vulpes ^{(💬 • 📝)} 04:22, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Style and Sources

@Belscb and @Robinmarkphillips, welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for finding some good sources for this article. As a general rule we don't really want to just list every book an author has published WP:LWA. Instead it would be better to highlight some of the important work the author has done, like if one series was more important or influential. I removed some of the books from the list because they are self-published (at least when I looked them up on Amazon). I removed the external links because they seemed kind of promotional WP:NOTPROMO and it might be a good idea to read WP:CONFLICT. I know y'all put a lot of work into this article and I promise I'm not trying to bully you or anything like that. Lets work together to make this article really great and make sure it obeys all of the rules etc. Dr vulpes ^{(💬 • 📝)} 22:06, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That makes sense! I think the page is pretty good as it stands now. Robinmarkphillips (talk) 17:22, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
