There are a lot of sources on this guy in mainstream newspapers at the moment [1], [2]. I would help with creating this article but not really my field. This guy as of 18/2/2020 does not have a Wikipedia article. Would be worth creating this at RationalWiki, it would get good traffic. John66 (talk) 22:39, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

he doesn't have a Wikipedia page as there is nothing notable about him. his stint as advisor lasted all of five minutes. we don't need a page on him. AMassiveGay (talk) 02:46, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
I only find one definite reference for him before 2019, a profile on Schoolsweek.com by Laura McInerney in 2016 that has some of the eugenics and modafinil remarks. (There's a couple of faith oriented articles as well that may or may not be him, didn't research as it's not terribly relevant.)
An article on Dominic CummingsWikipedia on the other hand would be a far more appropriate target where Andrew Sabisky could be mentioned. It's probably notable that Cummins' desire to hire "weirdos" led to them putting a vastly unqualified, unknown, eugenics-lovin' "superforecaster" in such a position of power. Also Cummins seems to have had eugenics-ish controversies in the past. Soundwave106 (talk) 03:40, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
Since he has just quietly faded into irrelevance, I don't think this article would be particularly necessary.-Flandres (talk) 14:41, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
