I declined a speedy because he's a professor. 'Professor' passes A7. But does this professor pass WP:NACADEMICS? I can't see anything much in terms of independent reliable sources. The author of the article makes much play on the ancestry of the subject, and of his being second cousin to someone who is bluelinked. That can't contribute to notability.

 * Delete: I could not find a single source to establish notability. I agree with Peridon, just been related to a notable person obviously does not make the subject notable.--Crystallizedcarbon (talk) 15:45, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. There's not actually a credible claim of notability in this article, only a recitation of family relationships and statement of position. Agricola44 (talk) 18:06, 18 November 2014 (UTC).
 * Delete. Genealogy cruft with no assertion of notability, as Agricola44 already said. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:15, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Actually an adjunct faculty member. Seems to have written his own guitar teaching method, but I don't see where it has gotten any significant independent coverage. There is a Newel Kimball Whitney, but that's not the same person. EricEnfermero  HOWDY! 15:53, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete No significant coverage or indication of notability. Notability is not inherited from family and nothing shows he's a noted academic.131.118.229.17 (talk) 21:02, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
