Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Richard caro
seems to meet #People_still_alive, as a published author.  I haven't seen the requirement of an audience of 5000 being documented in other author bios, so don't see why it should be documented here to have #People_still_alive considered relevant. (Of course I haven't read _all_(!) of Wikipedia, so it may be adhered to in most bios.  I'm prepared to be corrected.)  The Position section needs to be removed or rewritten, rather than a quote (IMHO), but I don't think the current edit is ''too'' puffy. Re the standard of authorship, there are thousands of less well written bio stubs which are kept - this article is comprehensible and formatted well
