[edit] Christopher F Silver

ISBN number provided in article does not exist, google produces no hits for name or books. Likely hoax, totally NN person if not. Seraphimblade 06:02, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

These articles are correct and this is not a CV. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sinfoniaba (talk • contribs) 06:48, Oct 24, 2006 (UTC).

  • Delete For what it's worth, there is a Christopher Silver listed as an adjunct professor at UT-Ch. Miller-Motte appears to be a non-degree business college/vocational school sort of thing. Perhaps he will be notable in a few years, right now he is just ambitious, as far as I can see. --Brianyoumans 07:04, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • I know in US 'professor' most usually means university teacher and is not a title of merit. I presume an adjunct professor is lower in scale, in which case definitely non-notable. If my understanding is incorrect, please say so, but I still support Delete because nothing in the article suggests any grounds for thinking this guy notable. (Incidentally, is it common in the US for someone to be awarded two bachelor degrees from the same university at the same time?) Emeraude 12:23, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, no evidence of meeting WP:BIO/WP:PROF; WP:NOT an indiscriminate collection of resumes. --Kinu t/c 14:03, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Kinu. About as junior as an academic can be, doesn't even have doctorate yet. Despite claims above, sure looks like a CV to me. Fan-1967 17:39, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete fails WP:BIO. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:49, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete "...this is not a CV"? Yes it is. Almost certainly WP:AUTO/WP:COI [1]. Listing papers he has co-written does not equate to verifiability. According to his own website, he's just a PHD drop out from a Canadian university [2]. Clearly fails WP:BIO and WP:PROF. -- IslaySolomon | talk 02:23, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete — per above -- lucasbfr talk 02:46, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
