Speedy deletion nomination of Scott Perlmutter


A tag has been placed on Scott Perlmutter requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. —C.Fred (talk) 01:14, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

 * This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (It is about contributions to advancement of current economic theory. It is still in the process of being updated to include further theory details that are included in the published working paper.) --User7322149196 (talk) 02:32, 8 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Please review the WP:BIO guidelines and make sure you have independent reliable sources that have written about Perlmutter. His working paper alone is not sufficient for an article. —C.Fred (talk) 02:43, 8 May 2016 (UTC)


 * @C.Fred Please review the guidelines you mentioned with regard to WP:ACADEMIC as it does meet the criterion listed. His working paper alone is sufficient for an article according to these guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by User7322149196 (talk • contribs) 03:35, 8 May 2016‎ (UTC)


 * Which criteria? —C.Fred (talk) 03:43, 8 May 2016 (UTC)


 * One would think a researching academic from Harvard University would qualify for criteria 3. —User7322149196 (talk)


 * Nope. That's covered under criterion 5: he'd have to hold a named chair at Harvard or be a distinguished professor. —C.Fred (talk) 13:02, 8 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Which he does (he holds the Treasurer position there), but that has nothing to do with his contribution to the advancement of economic theory. His working paper has been making the rounds through various think tanks on developmental economics and thought it'd be worth having a page. Guess you disagree. —User7322149196 (talk)
