Adam Clayton Powell IV (engineer)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable engineer. Not to be confused with the politician of the same name, who is notable. No third party sources. Briefly an MIT professor, but no real claim to notability beyond the usual acheivements that you would expect from anyone in academia. Prod declined, in part because his family is notable, which I don't consider a basis for individual notability. Hairhorn (talk) 21:19, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: ... which, of course, it isn't. I'd advocate redirecting this to his father's article, but his notability is threadbare and likely ripe for an AfD in similar fashion.   Ravenswing  17:18, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
