I have some pretty serious doubts about whether this passes either WP:GNG or WP:BLP1E. There seems to be essentially zero coverage of him for anything other than dying. Even then, it's the most passing of mentions (e.g., [1], [2]). At first glance it looks nice to have some big names in the reference section, but when you look at something like The Guardian, they actually give him exactly half a sentence, and themselves have nothing to link back to other than a niche wiki. From what I can tell, the sources in the article are pretty much the sources that are out there. GMGtalk 13:13, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
