Notability not established UScentric (talk) 03:28, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

• Strong keep. While the article needs cleanup, notability is beyond doubt: just look at [https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&q=%22Colin+Crouch%22&btnG= this]. He seems to have an H-index in the 50s (not bothered to look up the precise number: it's high) and has authored a paper about a new concept that has clearly received lots of attention. Comfortably meets WP:PROF. Please do follow WP:BEFORE when nominating things here. Vanamonde (talk) 14:06, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
• Keep Seems to be notable. Post-democracy is also nominated. I suggested merge the two articles.Kitfoxxe (talk) 16:53, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

• Speedy Keep - Nom is an SPA who started by doing some blanking at Cultural assimilation and then started nominating for deletion several articles that seem vaguely related to P2P research, without any apparent knowledge of what WP:N is. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 17:58, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
• Snow keep. As well as the clear pass of WP:PROF#C1 (and the evidence of a poor nomination worthy of a speedy keep) I think he also passes #C3 as a Fellow of the British Academy [http://www.wbs.ac.uk/news/releases/2005/07/12/Professor/Colin/Crouch]. Incidentally, there is a different Colin Crouch, a chess IM who died in 2015, who also appears to be notable. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:23, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
• Strong keep - Notability per WP:PROF clearly is established. Also note that his books have been translated into several languages. For example, according to WorldCat, Post-democracy has been translated into French ("Post-démocratie"), German ("Postdemokratie"), Italian ("Postdemocrazia"), Japanese ("Posuto demokurashī"), Russian ("Postdemokratii︠a︡"), Serbo-Croatian ("Postdemokracija"), Spanish ("Posdemocracia"), Swedish ("Postdemokrati")...

• Keep -- non trivial topic with sufficient RS coverage to establish notability. Merge from Post-democracy may be an option to be decided on later. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:42, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
