No indication of WP:notability. Google searches show he existed and wrote some books but no reviews or anything to show notability. Only one source given is more than a directory listing. That is about what looks like a non notable documentary. Disputed prod. Article even says his books were mostly self published. noq (talk) 23:39, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - He is mentioned in the context of the documentary Born Hutterite, in this article for those who have Highbeam access. The coverage is not substantial. I do not have access to this paywalled article but the subject of the article is the documentary so again, I suspect the coverage is not going to be substantial. This article about him getting jailed is completely irrelevant to notability and is the only significant coverage I could find. -- Whpq (talk) 15:40, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
