Unreferenced biography of a living person Rathfelder (talk) 07:36, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Seems notable due to positions held, and has a single ref, so procedural and general keep. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 09:57, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep per Piotrus' points. --Rubbish computer (HALP!: I dropped the bass?) 13:03, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. An impressive career as an academic ("a Fellow and past vice president of the American Physical Society", director of the Argonne National Laboratory, president of Morehouse College), business executive (chairman of Bank of America), 30 honorary degrees, etc. The list just goes on and on. A huge WP:BEFORE fail for Rathfelder. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:57, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - passes WP:PROF #6 as President of Morehouse College. StAnselm (talk) 20:58, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. The Morehouse presidency could be debated based on the small size of the institution. But heading NSF and then heading AAAS both are indisputably notable (at least a double pass of WP:PROF) and being a fellow of APS and AAAS and a member of the American Academy and the American Philosophical Society give him a quadruple pass of #C3. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:40, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
