[edit] Paul Jorion

Apparently non-notable academic who fails WP:PROF. I cannot find from independent sources any biography of him, or anything that suggest that the books he has authored are well-known or significant. Kimchi.sg 01:21, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Dionyseus 02:36, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Author of at least 4 books [1] one of which is with McGraw-Hill a major publisher. While [2] probably isn't the most independent source, most of it is verifiable from other sources. I can't verify the claim of an article in the Wall St Journal but it seems plausible. Dlyons493 Talk 16:28, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, no requirement that biographies must be available easily or on the net. Four books is enough, someone should add the ISBN's so we can how widespread the distribution was. Wjhonson 18:17, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Initially nominated for deletion on 19 August 2006. Relisted here for further consensus. Thanks.-- Samir धर्म 07:06, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep. Close enough, might be notable, but not because of book count.-Kmaguir1 08:30, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep McGraw-Hill is a MAJOR publisher of academic books. Allon FambrizziAllon Fambrizzi
• Keep per above comments, McGraw-Hill is nowhere near being vanity press; this person is notable. RFerreira 06:55, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
