This article about a novelist, screenwriter and television story editor has been tagged as needing more citations since 2007, and as an unreferenced BLP since March this year. His name makes it difficult to search for him, but I have carried out WP:BEFORE using his name plus "Geale" (alternative name given in article), the names of his books and the name of his collaborator. I can't find any sources to support the article. I therefore don't think he meets WP:NWRITER, WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO. (Included in deletion sorting lists for Colombia because the article says he lives there, and for the UK because I think he is British, or at least went to university in the UK.)

Adding that the article was PRODed and deproded in June this year. Tacyarg (talk) 20:17, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, zero sources listed. Fails WP:BASIC. --Mika1h (talk) 18:30, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I don't find coverage that convinces me that the article meets any of our standards of notability. I do find some non-reliable sources that could point towards something though, so I am willing to reconsider if someone could find some references to back those up.
