Proposed deletion of Professor of Greek (University College London)


The article Professor of Greek (University College London) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This is not a notable appointment/professorship. It is not an endowed chair nor is it a top appointment. Though held by notable people, that does not in itself satisfy notability.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

 * Please read Notability. You have not added anything to the article that establishes the notability of the appointment. As previously stated, being held by notable people or being one of the first chairs of UCL, does not make it an appointment worthy of an article. Please see Category:Professorships by subject to see chairs that are deemed notable enough for their own article. You will notice that the number of articles dedicated to professorships is very few and that they are all endowed/top appointments with notable histories and/or founding.

 * It seems to me that this is a notable/top chair. It has been around for almost 200 years.  The position is influential in the UK and the world of classical studies.  The Latin chair at UCL is also very important and a noteworthy position.  Indeed, a separate article should also be created for the Latin chair.  However, I defer to your expertise as an editor, and we can follow your suggestion. Bellot007 (talk) 15:05, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
