Created by single-purpose account. Does not appear to satisfy the criteria at Notability (academics). Anyone more familiar with measuring "academic impact" that can weigh in? Citobun (talk) 14:21, 8 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Academics who are only ranked assistant professor are rarely notable. He has published a lot, but there is no evidence that it has been impactful.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:05, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Do not DeleteThe argument that someone should be ranked associate or full professor to be included in Wikipedia is elitist and rather silly. People get ranked associate or full professor because of age, not contribution. And how do you measure the impact of publications? Apart from a very small number of publications (e.g. by Karl Marx and Jeffrey Sachs), the impact is questionable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.182.66.175 (talk) 08:25, 12 September 2016 (UTC)  — 158.182.66.175 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Delete instead at best because the only convincing thing here is that he's listed over a 1,000 times at WorldCat, although even his majorly listed book is only a high of 36 libraries. Certainly not convincing for WP:PROF, so there's essentially not a lot of convincing thus Delete instead, but Draft later if needed with the basis of at least accepting WP:AUTHOR with the library holdings.
