  • Comment: Taking a random sentence: "In addition, he has also written for the Los Angeles Times[17], Harvard Business Review[18][19], Psychology Today[20][21], Forbes[22], Fortune[23], the San Francisco Chronicle, The New Yorker, USA Today, and The Wall Street Journal." adds no real value. It's a little like saying "Fred had toast for breakfast". The gentleman's job role is likely to be to write stuff for these publications, among other tasks. So you are saying "He does his job" And that is not notable. And it is the same with any learned paper (etc) that he has written
    :Let me try to explain. If they manufactured vacuum cleaners, the cleaners would be their work. A vacuum cleaner could not be a reference for them, simply because it is the product they make. So it is with research, writings, etc. However, a review of their work by others tends to be a review of them and their methods, so is a reference, as is a peer reviewed paper a reference for their work. You may find WP:ACADEME of some use in seeing how Wikipedia and Academe differ hugely Fiddle Faddle 14:09, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
