This article, in its current form, is merely a listing of the subject's job titles, professional associations, and publications, with little or no context.

  Can you explain what you want by way of context?

The article's only references are either links to the subject's website or books that the subject himself has written.

  I could probably improve this, but then you would call it autobiography.

It looks like User:Normholland has made several edits to the article, though User:German.Center.1 has made the bulk of the edits. Wizard of Loneliness (talk) 01:44, 22 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

  An Israeli student, working on her Ph.D. in psychoanalytic literary criticism wrote me saying she was surprised I did not have an entry in Wikipedia.  She offered to make one, and I took her up on her offer.  She consulted me about data, and I may have made minor changes in what she put up (dates and such).
Also, it appears that a good chunk of the text is taken from an autobiographical draft from User:Normholland's user page. Wizard of Loneliness (talk) 01:53, 22 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
  This was an earlier attempt at a Wikipedia entry, 2006.
  Probably the simplest thing is just to take down the entry.
