Does not appear to meet the criteria set forth in WP:ACADEMIC. Publications alone, though perhaps extensive and interesting, do not constitute notability. KDS 4444 Talk  15:30, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
 * He writes, and has lots of opinions, but unfortunately no-one seems to write about him. As a result, fails WP:GNG and WP:NPROF, so Delete. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:39, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Keep Looking at the criteria established for academics, Dr. Maranto seems to satisfy the requirements. For example, 4. The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions. Dr. Maranto has been a professor at ten institutions, and he also holds the Endowed Chair of Leadership at the University of Arkansas.

Additionally, another criterion mentioned is 7. The person has made substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity. Dr. Maranto served in the Clinton administration. He has also published 11 books and two are awaiting publication. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hspainter (talk • contribs) 15:59, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
