Martinsons
If we forget for a moment this is mistitled, I can see multiple claims of notability in the article including several publications and claims of being a leader in their field. Was tagged as a speedy, but I don't think it is one. Abstain. - Mgm|(talk) 09:33, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. I actually find quite a few works citing this author when searching Ebrary or Google Books (look for "Martinsons, M" or "Martinsons, MG"). And for whoever added the nn-bio tag: this is emphatically not a speedy delete, a real professorship and publications are assertions of notability. u p p l a n d 15:02, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per Uppland, and because his "research and insights have been published in many leading English-language journals and translated into languages such as Chinese, French, Japanese, Latvian, and Russian". Kappa 18:15, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
 * keep as per above Jcuk 20:28, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. Vanity, probable autobiography, the vague claims of notability ("a leading authority on strategic management and organizational change") are unverifiable unless sources are provided and none are. Self-claimed notability is not a good claim of notability. We need to be serious about verifiability. Dpbsmith (talk) 00:30, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unverifiable and as it stands does not meet WP:BIO. Stifle 13:44, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
