Not sure what this person's claim to notability is - the article is entirely cited to webpages authored by him. As a political activist he's written a number of books, but I cannot see multiple reviews of any of them - when there is an occasional review it is in a Social Workers Party publication such as the International Socialism Journal.

Delete -- He might just about qualify for notability as a historian, but I find that his woek is in the catalogue of very few university libraries (according to COPAC). My view is thus that he is NN.

Keep You found a website that tells you all the reviews someone has gotten. Rather useful. This author is clearly notable based on the reviews gotten for their work.

Yes "ebsco" any Google search eg: "Dave Renton" ebsco .. Ebsco is one of the largest commercial databases it's pretty useful. --

Delete. Notability will eventually be met if the person keeps on working, why force it now?

Keep. The reviews listed by Green Cardamom are enough for
WP:AUTHOR for me. (But although the nomination has been withdrawn, there are other delete !votes so the AfD should not be closed early.) —
