Article that has been on the cat::nn list for more than a decade. Lacks coverage. Fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:BIO. Current coverage is passing mentions and a lookup form where his death is recorded. Several passing mentions in coverage as a teacher but nothing in-depth   scope_creep Talk  14:38, 4 April 2022 (UTC) Relisting comment: Previously nominated via WP:PROD, ineligible for soft deletion.

 * Keep per WP:HEY, WP:BEFORE and WP:NOTCLEANUP. I have added an additional source and cleaned up the rest. Highly regarded teacher who is written up in multiple biographies and magazine articles. StonyBrook (talk) 07:57, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * You have added a ref that is three small paragraphs and like the rest is not in-depth and seems to be passing mentions like tht red. The lede states he was a teacher. None of seems to indicate why is he notable.   scope_creep Talk  08:12, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * The subject wasn't just a run of the WP:MILL teacher, like tens of thousands of others. How many teachers have books written about them? He left his mark on many people, some of whom went on to achieve great things themselves. I added a notable student, with source. StonyBrook (talk) 08:43, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
