- Tentative Delete - may not even be the most notable figure with that name (non-trivial secondary sources on the internet seem hard to come by, though this article is not a hoax). I couldn't find what books he's written, they've certainly not reached amazon so he's probably not notable for as a writer of a major book; as an associate professor he doesn't seem to be especially notable within his domain either. The article as it stands doesn't make a sufficiently strong case for his notability and I can find no evidence outside this article for it either. I'll stand corrected if anyone can point out a major book he's written or can explain that he is remarkable within his field e.g. for advancing a new theory. Until then, I think this is better deleted. TheGrappler 03:30, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
- Delete but...: Non-notable as it stands currently. Expand upon his works and assert notability and importance, and you can withdraw my deletion. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 04:42, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
