Rowan Hamilton

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Apparent copypaste promotional biography of herbalist. No real claim to notability: "instrumental in founding" a college is too vague, almost no 3rd party refs to be found except  DGG ( talk ) 15:08, 9 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I concur; delete. DS (talk) 15:39, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:RS, WP:BLP, and WP:PROF. Bearian (talk) 21:12, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete in the absence of evidence for passing WP:GNG. Although I found this AfD through the list of Academics and educators-related deletion discussions it appears that he doesn't even come close to passing WP:PROF, as someone who assisted (rather than taking the lead) in founding two WP:FRINGE institutions. And the article reads like an autobiography in that it includes far more personal detail than the (nonexistent) sources can support. —David Eppstein (talk) 03:21, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
