Not notable - just a teacher at a high school. Even if the school is notable, the teacher isn't automatically. RossPatterson 18:07, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep until the status of Global Research Program is resolved, since if that program is considered notable then this person is probably notable as well (since that's the article's primary assertion of notability).
 * delete Seems like a very nice high school teacher. But not a notable one based on the objective evidence.  The program, like the man, has no verifiable references for notability posted, nor that I can find.

 * Delete, even if the other article is kept (which is doubtful), the creator of the program doesn't rate. User:Zoe|(talk) 23:22, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per Zoe. I wouldn't comment were it not for Tarinth's keep recommendation. If Global Research Program were notable (note subjunctive) and the only notability that Melvin Maskin had was through that program, then Maskin should only be discussed in that article, and Maskin does not need, nor is it appropriate for, a separate article about him.  --Bejnar 00:03, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Aw, man. Don't make me come out against the teacher. I'm afraid I have to agree with the nominator about notability. Aw, man. Bourne 00:05, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
