Has one citation. Needs two more for this capitalized sense. SemperBlotto (talk) 11:35, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
- There are two citations in this excerpt; from Colin Wilson & Andrew M. Lobaczewski. This term is derived from the Science Fiction novel "The Violent Man" by A. E. van Vogt. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._E._van_Vogt#/Post-war_life_and_work. It also has various derivative web pages related to this term. https://www.google.com/search?ei=XNgJWsWyOsf8mQHA24WoBg&q=Colin+Wilson+%2B+right+man. I'd be happy to add another citation if this entry still qualifies. Btakita (talk) 17:39, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
cited. Most of the cites out there are by Colin Wilson, or Colin Wilson with a co-author. I did manage to find some other authors, however. While searching, I also found more authors that use the same sense, but without the capitalization. Kiwima (talk) 04:03, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
- Re: "Most of the cites out there are by Colin Wilson", that makes sense since this is a term invented by Colin Wilson. The reason why I think it's credible is that academics & practictioners in Psychology are compelled to publish this terminology. Btakita (talk) 04:03, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- Sorry to be a pedant (I can't help myself), but it was invented by A.E. Van Voigt. It was merely pushed heavily by Colin Wilson. Kiwima (talk) 04:29, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
