I don't see the notability here, nor have I been able to dig anything up about him. Wikipedia is not a memorial. Also, there may be a bit of WP:COI, since the creator is User:Doncram. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:43, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Seems a violation of WP:GNG and WP:MEMORIAL. A passing mention in an academic journal is not sufficient to establish notability. And that's assuming this is not a hoax, as I cannot find the reference ("A changing of the guard: regional planning in Ottawa, 1944-1974") mentioned anywhere on the web outside of this very article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 10:02, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
 * No objection to deletion, from creator of article (a really long time ago). -- do ncr  am  15:02, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment. Since it doesn't appear that anyone other than Doncram made any significant edits, it now qualifes for speedy deletion per G7. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:16, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
