Possible improvements: Make the draft less promotional; other info

Skyhorse publishing: Has its own Wikipedia article. The details of titles in print, NYT bestsellers, and revenue are not relevant to Lyon's biography. If not in the Skyhorse Publishing article, those details could go there. Relevant, notable specifics about Lyons work with Skyhorse could be appropriate.
Legal career: The lead says he is an attorney, but the article had no information about the time from his graduation from law school in 1993 until The Lyons Press in 1997.
Author: He has authored/co-authored at least one book. There is no information in the article.
Defamation suit: As worded, it seems to imply that Lyons was the person who filed suit. Recommend that the section be reworded to specify who brought the suit, why Skyhorse/Lyons was party to the suit, etc.
Wikilinks: Not every instance of term with a Wikipedia article should have a wikilink - only the first instance. I removed a few repeats, but did not clean up all of them.
Inline citations: Your AfC submission was rejected for lacking inline citations. I've tagged the "facts" that need citations.

@ERcheck Thank you for contributing.

@EchoOfLiberty Tho there is still need for adding reliable source that shows significant coverage, especially for Biography of a living person, I’ve placed a tag while moving it to mainspace. Chippla ✍️ - Best Regards 22:54, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
