Comment: Meets  easily.  I don't think it makes good sense to delete an article on someone notable just because it was created by a blocked user

Comment: Nom is correct about , and, at a glance, this dore apper ot have been aproblematic, POV sock.  However, Godson is  a notable foreigh policy guy and   also stipulates: ''"This applies to pages created by banned or blocked users in violation of their ban or block, and that have no substantial edits by others."'' So I added substantive edite: a list of books sourced to scholarly book reviews. Article needs improvement
