Doesn't meet WP:BIO or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 20:44, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep I actually think that the article does meet the threshold for notability, given the subject's publications and academic appointments. There should be more inline citations, but this is an argument to edit, not delete the page Smanworld (talk) 21:18, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment, a couple of johnston's books are held (includes e-versions) in quite a few libraries ie. International Exploration Economics, Risk, and Contracts Analysis 212 libraries, Introduction to Oil Company Financial Analysis 213 libraries indicating "recognized contribution" in the field of oil finance/economics?

Relisting comment: Since this hinges on NPROF more than GNG, one more relist for arguments re: "recognized contribution" in his field.
 * Delete. No single WP:SIGCOV piece on the subject from any decent independent source – definately a fail of WP:GNG.  His books might be held in some liabaries, but they are not important and have had no coverage within the industry (bar some WP:MILL stuff) – would therefore not meet #4 of WP:AUTHOR.  Nowhere near meeting WP:NPROF. Britishfinance (talk) 12:02, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete I'm not seeing this as an NPROF pass - being on the board of a journal isn't the same as being the chief editor, and he doesn't have a post at an academic institution. I can't find any reviews of his writing that might get him over the line as a notable author, and I can't find any independent sources about him that would satisfy GNG. As a certain AfD regular might say: Non-notable consultant. Girth Summit <sub style="font-family:script;color:blue;"> (blether)  09:11, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
