According to and, this person never actually accepted the post he is noted for. In a case where notability is borderline to begin with, it does not seem as though the subject meets WP:NBIO or WP:PROF. Yunshui 雲 水 16:01, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete, as Nom says, a couple of news stores state that Talbott withdrew for "personal reasons" and that the search for a director has been renewed. I am not seeing enough notability here to keep.  He's young, probably WP:TOOSOON.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:28, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * no objection as one of the main authors I won't object to a deletion though I oppose deleting well-sourced valid articles on principle. --The Cunctator (talk) 20:01, 20 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete executive directors are rarely notable. Brian Q. Cannon, who has been executive director of the Redd Center at BYU might be notable, but this has to do with his much longer record of academic production, and I would have to review how his academic production has gone over the last 15 years before I could say if an article on him is yet merited. Now a holder of the named chair connected with that institute, like Ignacio M. Garcia, would be notable, but that is a different story than the executive director. It basically boils down to research propels one to notability faster than academic administration.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:37, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
 * delete I don't think the coverage shows WP:GNG is met and I don't see any real evidence of notability.Sandals1 (talk) 20:24, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
