Tagged for notability since 2015. WP:Before isn't returning much (although it is quite a common name). The refs in the article don't say much and the external links appear to be for amusement. Szzuk (talk) 12:45, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[1] Search for his name and what he is known for, Zome, and you get some results to look through. Is he notable or just quoted or mentioned in passing at times because of his work with domes? A lot to read through and nothing standing out so far. Dream Focus 13:23, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep — The citations already given in the article were sufficient to meet WP:GNG. Lots of WP:SURMOUNTABLE issues not relevant to AfD. I added a ref to an 85 page chapter in the book Groovy Science: Knowledge, Innovation, and American Counterculture that covers Baer extensively, and a couple mentions in other publications. Cited sources verify that Baer is an expert in solar energy and domes who popularized these concepts and made significant contributions to the field. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 17:11, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
