Dennis C. Hammond

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

no evidence of notability -- still just assistant professor; Google Scholar shows several fairly well cited papers but not enough for notability in this field. NOT DIRECTORY  DGG ( talk ) 17:32, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as I also concur with DGG again, nothing here at all for any actual notability and nothing convincing of any other convincing signs otherwise at all. SwisterTwister   talk  18:38, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Merge to SPAIR. The subject may not be notable, but a technique he developed is. See this AfD discussion for more information about the suggested merge target's notability. North America1000 12:40, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - There's nothing here to actually sensibly merge as there's nothing to suggest his own article anytime soon, thus because of being best known for the item, still delete as I voted. SwisterTwister   talk  05:03, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I disagree, because SPAIR only has a single mention of the subject in the first sentence of the lead. The provision of addition background information regarding the subject, such as that in the lead of the Dennis C. Hammond article would certainly and sensibly enhance and improve the merge target article. For example, information about the subject being a plastic surgeon and assistant professor of surgery at Michigan State University would be a fine addition. Also of note is that a merge was suggested at Talk:Dennis C. Hammond on 2 June 2014, with the nominator (obviously) supporting a merge of SPAIR to the subject's article and one user opposing.

 * Upon consideration, I have added some basic biographical content to the lead of the SPAIR article; my merge !vote still stands, though. North America1000 05:20, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete nothing to pass the notability requirements for medical doctors.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:02, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
 * delete along with SPAIR which was created by same (probably paid) editor directly, without going through AfC. Would not have passed AfC due to lack of independent reliable sources with substantive discussion. Jytdog (talk) 17:56, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
