I happened on this article at random, and I am wondering why it is being considered for Deletion. It is not well written, but this person would seem to have a pretty extensive list of works.

This would seem to be one that needs Improvement, not deletion.

• This was an initial entry meant to lay out the basic information. The reason it was listed for possible deletion seems to have been some confusion with a newly entered disambiguation page. The discussion which followed concluded the entry was appropriate and notable. Fucyfre 01:37, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

It is my understanding that there is to be a new collection of Shapiro's essays to be published next year which may well serve to further amplify the entry. Fucyfre 01:40, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
