Professor Joe Carrington

Unsourced biography with strong allegations; borderline attack page but I hesitated to speedy. Reads like an essay. &mdash; Coren (talk) 01:55, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Not quite an attack page, I agree, but it seems like vanity. This particular Joe Carrington does not come up on Google, which suggests to me that his supposed crusade to expose corruption in medicine is minor, localized, and has not received any form of press attention or had any significant impact. Delete. — Verrai 02:13, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. My Google search matches yours - there isn't any data to suggest that this professor is in any way notable. If, for some reason, Prof. Carrington becomes notable, or receives coverage in the press for some notable act or event, then an article might be appropriate. I presume that the professor is alive, bringing WP:BLP into play as well. ZZ Claims~ Evidence 02:30, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't see anything in the article to convince me that "professor" is anything but a nickname. Regardless, it's unencyclopedically written, unsourced and likely unsourceable. —David Eppstein 05:16, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
