I've tried to be as objective as possible, and treat the author in my head as someone who's first tongue is not English.  I think Davies is borderline notable, but the article is not.  I spent an hour googling Davies earlier today and found nothing except that he has translated a lot of stuff.  Well, I have done a lot of stuff in my life.  I'm even borderline notable in a small field, but nothing to warrant an article on me, especially one that precisley nothing links to like this one.  Frankly I hope the author just makes it notable.  I'll respond to him with gentlemanly politesse, but I can;t help him any further.
