Robert M. Bernstein
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

AfD created by request at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion.

The rationale given by the IP editor was:

The subject of this article has not itself received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Also -can someone fix this - it appears this should be the second afd for this person. The first one is also worth reading. And resulted in delete, overwhelmingly.

 * Delete for all the same reasons as last time around. There were interesting lengthy discussions - which revealed, among other things, that Bernstein was not a professor at Columbia University, as asserted in the second sentence of this article.

 * Snow delete as not the actual nominator and looking at the last discussion, plus the comment above. Timothy Joseph Wood  22:56, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Strong delete When articles claim a subject is a distinguished professor at a major academic institution but they are no such thing, then it is time to delete the article. This is promotional puffery that needs to be elimanated from Wikipedia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:37, 30 December 2016 (UTC)\
 * delete and salt - i did read through all that and indeed almost lost my will to live. Jytdog (talk) 23:56, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete and salt as above. Xxanthippe (talk) 11:47, 31 December 2016 (UTC).
 * Delete. I was on the keep side of the previous AfD but I'm not going to continue to defend this. The obvious promotional intent outweighs any marginal notability that the subject may have. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:42, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete should never have been created after the last AfD. Lepricavark (talk) 17:14, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
 * COMMENT FYI: It appears the nominator has been making COI edits to another dermatologist's (competitor's?) page (Cameron Rokhsar) and several edits/tags/noms to other dermatologist's pages. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2604:2000:E016:A700:D4E1:E2A1:3568:3C85 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8807:810A:BF00:D8A4:F18D:7DA9:E7FD (talk) 03:29, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
