The result was Speedy keep. This does not appear to be a good faith nomination, especially given that the nominator tried to remove valid comments. Also the nomination states that their is "a total lack of sourcing". However, the article has several sources. The nomination was malformed and did not appear in the AfD listing for today.

Feminist school of criminology
The article has been marked as having problems with original research, POV, and a total lack of sourcing (let alone reliable sourcing) for six years without improvement. There's no evidence on the page that there is even an independent field of a "feminist school of criminology," or if such a thing does exist, that it's notable. That a very small number of academics shares related ideas a decade ago in a small number of articles, does not create a distinct school of thought or movement or notable idea -- otherwise ever academic journal article would be its own wiki page as soon as it gets a citation.

It's been up long enough. If no-one's fixed it in seven days, time to kill it.

 * Speedy keep as bad faith nomination. Article is copiously sourced, dozens of scholarly sources document the subject. Editor needs to stop using Wikipedia for POV-pushing. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 07:56, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep - echoing Roscelese. Every criminology textbook has feminist criminology. Nonsensical to suggest it's not notable.  Eve rgr een Fir  (talk) Please &#123;&#123;re&#125;&#125; 17:00, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
