[edit] Assessment

I'm assessing this as B per the request on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography/Assessment#Requesting_an_assessment, but I'm troubled by the amount that seems to be about and sourced from the author's own works. While we certainly want to say something about what his views are, we don't want to devote almost all the article to what he writes, a large part, if not most, of the article, should be about what other people write about him. --AnonEMouse ^(squeak) 17:55, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
