Massive Conflict of interest problems. Article almost entirely written by Lars Konzack himself (with a bit added by some Danish IPs, possibly Mr. Konzack as well?). No references or apparent outside notability. Fails WP:PROF by a large margin as well as the more general notability guidelines. Mr. Konzack is an associate professor who, like almost all professors, has published some, but that's it. Google and Google scholar confirm that he's been published, but that's it; other hits are self-published items like his blog. Was PRODed, but deprodded by a new account which only offered "notable" as the reason for deprodding. (Also: Articles for deletion/Mauppie is a spinoff article that was also deleted.)

Though this is technically out of scope, I will add that I have read one of Mr. Konzack's journal papers. I was not impressed, and do not expect that the secondary acclaim WP:PROF requires will be forthcoming in the future. Escaped Quaternion (talk) 22:17, 12 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. Aside from the autobiography issue (how did this article last for two years without anyone noticing that?), the only Google hits I found are to his Facebook, LinkedIn and Flickr pages. THE AMERICAN METROSEXUAL 00:02, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
