Academic that does not meet WP:PROF -- certainly not via research, and I don't see sufficient coverage to meet other standards Nomoskedasticity (talk) 20:46, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, but consider mailing a copy to anybody who wants, for possible transfer to the Harry Potter wiki. Anybody who writes an article like "Harry Potter and the Upcoming Venus-Jupiter Conjunction" should probably be documented somewhere, but not necessarily here. Ray  Talk 14:42, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - I had nominated for PROD. Checking criteria 1 through 9 at WP:PROF, I can't find any academic awards or honors, not an elected member of one of the prestigous scholarly associations, not a chair or distinguished professor, no indication of extraordinary impact within the discipline, not an editor, can't find notable impact ourside academia, and not noted for non-academic achievements. Wikipedia is not supposed to be a directory of staff members at various institutions. --Wtshymanski (talk) 17:33, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails PROF. - UtherSRG (talk) 20:47, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete: Not notable. Perhaps good content for a résumé or a CCSU bio, but not worthy of Wikipedia inclusion. --Sgt. R.K. Blue (talk) 12:29, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of evidence of passing WP:PROF. The multiple local newspaper stories announcing astronomy events that involve her don't convince me of a pass of WP:GNG, either.—David Eppstein (talk) 17:56, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete does not meet criteria for WP:PROF, really no signifigant contributions or notworthy positions in associations, or institutions. Also, I agree that Wikipedia is not a directory. Steve Quinn (talk) 05:50, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
