The article doesn't read neutral to me; too much focus on the mild controversy caused by his tweets. Seems to me like a BLP issue; before removing the NPOV tag please gain consensus for it at WP:BLPN. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:22, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This article is not really necessary. It clearly violates WP:NOTNEWSPAPER. Leo711 (talk) 12:11, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Discussion should come before any tags are added. Explain how there is too much focus on the tweets because I don't see it. Christopher Connor (talk) 15:10, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Seriously!? You don't see how this article was created the day he published his tweet? How about you go to Grenade and not see how it can actually kill you? Three days ago nobody knew him, and now he's a celebrity. I actually want to nominate this nonsense for deletion. He gets more than enough publicity for his books without Wikipedia's help. Definitely not a significant person. Leo711 (talk) 16:01, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
