Deletion of John Lindow

Comment: I've found reviews of his books by Guy Tassin, Jacqueline Simpson, Rochelle Wright, William Hansen, Frank Hugus, Michael Barnes, Joseph Harris, Paul Schach, Stephen A. Mitchell, Anatoly Liberman, Henry Ansgar Kelly and W. Edson Richmond in reliable, peer reviewed journals; many appear to be the standard works for this field, which covers Criteria 1 for . This, along with coverage in the ''Albuquerque Journal'', his membership of the Royal Gustavus Adolphus Academy (which surely passes Criteria 3) should demonstrate notability. He has published standard works, and it is ludicrous and counterintuitive to have a situation where I could write an article on say, ''Murder Vengeance among the Gods: Baldr in Scandinavian Mythology'' with a dozen sources, have that accepted as notable (obviously), do the same thing with every other book he's published, and then see consensus form that the author of said works is not notable. Guidelines are "generally accepted standards that editors should attempt to follow", though "best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply". If C1 and C3 are not enough, this should certainly constitute an exception
