Untitled[edit]

This page looks like it was taken from Mr. Rees' curriculum vitae, with very little attempt to attribute the information or relate it to other wikipedia content to assist readers making links. Rees looks to be an interesting person, but this page does nothing to "bring him alive" for the reader. If I knew anything about the subject, I would edit it myself.

Publication coverage[edit]

Do we need to include the titles of virtually all the articles he has written? Some of these articles do not seem to have been very long. Books are one thing, and articles in scholarly journals. However Sunstone is more of a magazine, with many not supper long articles, so I am not sure to what extent we need to include those sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:38, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely not. Books we usually list all (unless there are simply too many, but then the author usually is notable enough to justify a split-off list), but not articles, not even scholarly ones. For those we make a selection of the most notable ones (hopefully supported by some source, or by nupmber of GScholar citations or something like that. --Randykitty (talk) 17:58, 1 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No sources[edit]

This article has almost no sources and reads like a curriculum vitae. I'm not convinced it should even exist, but I'll defer to the previous WP:AFD discussion. Considering the lack of sources, I think this should probably be cut down to a stub article unless someone is willing to add the appropriate sources.
