Talk:Kevin Tuite

Untitled
Hello, I am the subject of this Wikipedia page. I request that a few minor changes be made to the text. 1. Please change "Tuite is a citizen of the U.S. and Ireland and a Landed immigrant of Canada" to "Tuite is a citizen of Ireland and Canada" (I obtained Canadian citizenship several years ago). 2. My website has been moved to the address https://www.webdepot.umontreal.ca/Usagers/tuitekj/MonDepotPublic/philologie.html (It can also be accessed through the alias www.philologie.com) 3. If you require any further information, please contact me at kj.tuite@umontreal.ca thank you, Kevin Tuite 184.162.200.112 (talk) 17:20, 9 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your request. I am not sure why this page exists to begin with since it does not reference any sort of WP:SOURCE and gets its information completely from WP:SELFPUBLISH. I understand you have published a lot of books and I'm sure they are great, but I do not see the merit of having a Wikipedia article for you without any sort of referencable independent notability. As a result, I am going to nominate this article for deletion. ~  Rick305  t·c 05:07, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
 * , I've contested your PROD on the grounds that full professors usually meet one of the criteria of WP:PROF, which means that deletion could be controversial, and discussion at AfD where people who are more familiar with our academic criteria would be better if you still feel this should be deleted. Luckily, we have access to his CV, which is useful for purposes of verification. should be able to provide more analysis on notability. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:46, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
 * there's probably enough information at the website to justify notability. The problem of having to third party references can be met in the usual way, by having the references for the books go to worldcat. I wroteprobably because the publication pattern is characteristic of its own special field, where most of the publications are neither the peer-reviewed journals standard for the hard sciences, or the books for the humanities. The pattern here, where most of the significant publications are in edited volumes, is however characteristic of some fields of anthropology, archeology, linguistics, and classics--each being a relatively or very small area where citation figures are inherently low because of the low number of people publishing in the field. On balance, I accept the judgment of a major research university that full professorship is only given to people influential in their subject--and in this cases there are two of them.
 * There is no reason not to addthe routine material on the basis of the CV. Only a RS is needed for such material, not a 3rd party source. I will add it.  DGG ( talk ) 01:04, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Got it. Thanks for the clarity! ~  Rick305  t·c 22:59, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
