I haven't yet looked for papers and other books. Yes, I am a little surprised at such a record for someone with the board membership he has, but that's just my prejudices showing.

An inadequate article does not always mean inadequate notability, nor does teaching at a non-mainstream university mean lack of a distinguished record. It turns out from search in WorldCat that his major book, published by

Lol. Then you've missed quite a few stubbies running around that are all of a sentence or two. That's the nature of a volunteer-led encyclopedia. Articles limp along sometimes until the right editor dusts it off and starts fixing it. We're not in a rush but boldness is also encouraged.
502:. When people are citing papers like this, it is safe to conclude that the scholar is significant and merit an article - it is also time to conclude that the material exists for us to write about his work, but that effort just hasn't been done yet. This isn't a close call.
