Comment: But Rosenblum is more notable for his community organizing, union work and sparking of the nationwide movement for a $15/hr minimum wage than for his writing. His book has yet to be published, so if the reference to him being a writer is removed will the requirement for a major book review also be removed?.cpsarason-talk 05:26, 16 January 2017 (UTC)- Comment: Any number of major reviews would've helped as long as it was a considerably large number.

- Comment: Finding major book reviews will certainly add to Rosenbaum's notability, but his work in the organizing efforts of WashTech, University of Washington and the historic $15/hour minimum wage campaign (along with accompanying outside references) appear to meet the notability requirements as I read them. (Notable for more than 1 reason. Independent source confirmation. Connected to significant events (in this case, as part of the labor movement of the past 20 years). cpsarason-talk 22:47, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: What will establish notability here is finding all major book reviews for him. SwisterTwister talk 19:20, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
