 * Delete Clear non-notable. Xxanthippe (talk) 06:01, 12 May 2009 (UTC).
 * Comment. I'm rather surprised that the three editors above have claimed non-notability without explaining how these books and these news articles covering the subject don't confer notability. It takes hardly any more time to find them than it does to type, "I agree, non-notable", or, "clear[sic] non-notable", and certainly less time than it takes to create an AfD discussion.

 * The purpose of this page is to assess BLPs as they are presented, not to rewrite them. That is the job of their authors. If you think that the BLP can be improved by the information you provide, then edit it. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:08, 12 May 2009 (UTC).


 * Keep. Meets WP:PROF criterion #1 (significant impact in scholarly discipline, broadly construed). Has at least one book, The bully at work, currently in more than 800 major libraries worldwide according to WorldCat.--Eric Yurken (talk) 01:22, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment. I added the info. about his book’s holdings to the article; this is in my view the key verifiable claim of notability, as far as WP:PRO is concerned.--Eric Yurken (talk) 01:26, 17 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete There is not enough referenced material to establish notability. The book holdings is quite impressive, but not enough on its own and is also WP:OR NBeale (talk) 09:51, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Article needs work, but passes WP:N and WP:V. Nanowolf (talk) 21:28, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
