[edit] Eric Bittner

The article does not make any claim to notability, other than the fact that he is a university professor. Is that enough? Do we have a recommended or official policy on including all or some university professors? Aleph4 17:09, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

• Comment Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Precedents#Education says Professors are notable if they have made significant contribution to one or more books (not just papers) --Pboyd04 17:17, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Therefore I have to go with delete I couldn't find any books just some papers about quatum chemistry. --Pboyd04 17:17, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment. Here's some discussion: [1]. PJM 17:34, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Pboyd04's research. Endomion 18:47, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
• Provisional Delete. One hit in Google Books, almost certainly not this Eric Bittner: a introductory acknowledgement of help from one Eric Bittner of the National Archives and Record Administration in Denver, Colorado. For the record I'm not saying every book is indexed by Google; solid relevant hits in Google Books would establish notability, their absence does not establish non-notability... but it's an indication. Will change vote if good evidence of notability is provided prior to expiration of AfD discussion. Dpbsmith (talk) 20:16, 27 December 2005 (UTC) P. S. A search on Eric R. Bittner turns up one relevant hit, but establishes no more than that he's indeed on the Houston faculty. Dpbsmith (talk) 20:19, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Currently no evidence of passing WP:BIO. Stifle 02:02, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
• Weak delete per Dpbsmith. I will also reconsider if a good enough case is made. PJM 13:35, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
