I think Silver Seren's use of the connected contributor tag is pretty on the money, so I decided to do a quick fact checking on the sources and have made the needed changes. Since this article had possible POV issues, I removed content where I would normally just tag it with a citation needed. In the lead section I changed the wording to reflect the sources in some areas, like the section that listed Gordon's clients. Looking at the sources, I wouldn't classify them as clients. They are organizatins that have used his book. I also removed several of the clients listed as they were not substantiated by reliable sources. Also in the lead section, I found that the Washington Post and U.S. News and World Report were the only sources that actually covered his work. The Wall Street Journal was a passing mention by someone who had read one of his books and the New York Post involved Gordon being quoted about a topic other than himself. The Forbes coverage was actually a commentary article on the Frobes website that was written by Gordon himself, so I don't think that constitutes independent coverage.
The rest of the article, finally, looks pretty good, except that I'm not sure this should be rated as a top importance article? I'll leave that discussion to someone who might know better. LawrenceDuncan (talk) 16:29, 6 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Beyond a handful of books that I've mentioned in the "Books" Section, I don't see how the rest are relevant. I'm considering deleting the section but wanted to discuss first. Realtent (talk) 20:46, 16 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
Pinging @~2026-16849-75: The books are already in the bibliography. They don't need to be listed twice, let alone once for most of them as a lot of them aren't notable or have sources Realtent (talk) 00:15, 19 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
