This is a WP:FRINGEBLP of a climate change denier who is so obscure as to really not be identified by the appropriate number of third-party sources. The primary author of this article claims that WP:PROF is satisfied because some of his papers have lots of citations, but there are citogenesis issues for some of these papers within the closed-shop climate change denial community, and, frankly, hundreds of citations over the course of decades is not a particularly high. I just do not see enough evidence that this person is notable and the other WP:BIO indicators seem to be lacking as well. jps ( talk) 10:49, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

If anything it lowers the standard and adds support to KEEP (article creator). -- Yae4 ( talk) 09:45, 8 April 2020 (UTC)There are people who are notable enough to have articles included in Wikipedia solely on the basis of their advocacy of fringe beliefs. Notability can be determined by considering whether there are enough reliable and independent sources that discuss the person in a serious and extensive manner, taking care also to avoid the pitfalls that can appear when determining the notability of fringe theories themselves. Caution should be exercised when evaluating whether there are enough sources available to write a neutral biography that neither unduly promotes nor denigrates the subject.
