I was almost duped into believing this was a notable author until I dug into the sources, specifically Los Angeles Tribune which changed ownership in the last decade to a less than reputable PR firm. See this for an example of how they engage in pay for publications. I can find no evidence that this guy is notable, despite the claims here, which are only supported by self published sources. And should there be any doubt about the sole "independent source" being unreliable, the paper didn't even exist again until May of this year when it was revived by said PR firm. It is no longer the same paper nor with the same editorial standards. Praxidicae (talk) 11:46, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
