Notability has not been established in this autobiography, there are 50 sources which are all primary, not a single independent reliable source let alone any in-depth. Theroadislong (talk) 11:07, 27 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
On reflection this article should be considered for deletion. --Devokewater (talk) 13:27, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed there doesn't appear to be a single reliable independent source in the article? Theroadislong (talk) 14:43, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The more I cut, this less sure I am that there is a kernel of content ABOUT Loxdale rather than descriptions of research BY Loxdale. David notMD (talk) 19:38, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Spicy has suggested that the article should be cut down to a one-paragraph stub, I'm in agreement with this, the Scientific contributions does not need to be included in the article. Devokewater (talk) 08:37, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Article now 1/5 its maximum length. The Scientific contributions section still needs trimming, but I am against it being deleted in its entirety. David notMD (talk) 11:23, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
