- I don't think this Afd will pass, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't. Yes Hobsbawm is missional, but right now, I think this article is too inaccurate even for draftspace (see my post on the talk page[1] so TNT

- After looking him up and reading some stuff about this guy, I agree that the article seems like a hit piece and a mischaracterization.

- The citations seem flimsy. Few appear broken, one directs to some publisher, one appears to be a blog post and two cites being from not entirely reliable right-leaning newspapers, Daily Mail and (post-2007) Wall Street Journal. In comparison the English Wikipedia counterpart seems to have more authoritative citations on the subject. -- DangerousTomaccoUser (talk) 09:51, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
