Canadian author and photographer. I can't find decent RS on him. He has published a couple of books on various topics; I found two reviews of variable quality in total. GNG, WP:ARTIST and WP:AUTHOR fail. (Note that he writes under the pen name "Paul 107".)ThatMontrealIP (talk) 03:16, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No sign of notability. Sources provided (Youtube,...) not establish or suggest notability. SaraLiX5 (talk) 22:42, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Note that articles about him in the Montreal Gazette dating to before he was hired to write a column for the Gazette are INDEPENDENT sources.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:50, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I took a swing at sourcing it. He and his book did get covered in the Montreal Gazette, I added some of the stories sot the article. The Gazette ran a profile when the book was published . But it's local, and even if it wasn't, I just didn't find enough to support notability under WP:CREATIVE, or WP:ANYBIO.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:13, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
