WP:BLP of a dentist and academic, relying entirely on primary sources with not so much as a hint of reliable sourcing. He would most likely have a legitimate claim of notability if the article were properly sourced, but it's the quality of sourcing that can be provided to verify that a person passes a Wikipedia inclusion guideline which gets them past that guideline, and not the mere unsourced or primary-sourced assertion itself. (Also a probable conflict of interest, as the article was initially created by User:Schoolofdent; dominant followup contributor User:Smilyboy also raises my suspicions — dentist, smily, see the theme? — but isn't as easy to be sure about.) I'm happy to withdraw this nomination if the article can be cleaned up with real sourcing, but it's not entitled to stick around in this form. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 18:35, 5 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep. Although the BLP suffers from promotional bloat there is a clear pass of WP:Prof. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:55, 5 July 2014 (UTC).
 * Keep - subject's work is well cited, indicating notability. Chop to a stub if necessary, but AfD is not for cleanup. --ThaddeusB (talk) 00:13, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep No question that he meets WP:ACADEMIC: Dean of a major dental school, and Distinguished Professor at both that school and the associated medical school. I have trimmed a little of the puffery and duplication. --MelanieN (talk) 01:33, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
