I see you've used the ((hangon)) tag. The material you've added above is a step on the way to what would be required -- the next step would be to cite the exact article title and the specific date that Mr. Whitbeck's article was published in "The Nation", "The Christian Science Monitor" and various others. In Wikipedia, encyclopedic content must be verifiable -- you can read about the associated policy by following the link earlier in this sentence. Another link you may wish to follow is WP:BIO, which gives the criteria under which an individual is considered notable. If I can be of any further help, you can leave a message on my talk page.

I agree with the other editor who removed the tag; notability has now been asserted. I've tried to make a start at providing some references, although the arm's-length aspect of the ones I've provided is less than perfect; this will do until others can be provided, I trust.
