 * Delete. Notability not found. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:46, 10 August 2017 (UTC).
 * Delete for no real claim of notability and practically all web sources. Is this a pay-for-play article? Agricola44 (talk) 19:11, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: User is a paid editor, but I removed the tag from the article as they have declared COI on their user page (admittedly this was retroactive), which AFAIK is completely in line with Wikipedia policy. HelgaStick (talk) 15:20, 15 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete. The entire article consists of sentence after sentence of "And then, Dieterich did another unremarkable thing." And the only footnote that looks from its formatting to be a reliable source (supposedly a New York Times article) is actually a paid advert for a TV series in which the two paragraphs about Dieterich read jarringly like an advert-within-an-advert. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:38, 12 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Weak keep: Although I agree with Eppstein's comments about the tone, there do seem to be a number of notable instances mentioned – such as talking at the United Nations and Congress. But I would say that the article definitely needs to be trimmed of fluff. HelgaStick (talk) 15:20, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
