I don't think this article passes the notability criterion. This is an author that has attracted some media attention but as an academic is a young scholar with low citation numbers and no agreement on his contributions. He is part of a controversial group recently heavily critizised for the way they depict the field of consciousness relative to their contributions. If this person has a Wikipedia page, we would need to add almost every junior researcher to Wikipedia but I do not think this one has passed the encyclopedic cutoff — Preceding unsigned comment added by DaveFarn (talk • contribs) 11:21, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
