• Keep The article just now is pretty much just a CV, but the main ground for notability is that he meets WP:AUTHOR for Pursuit of Justices per reviews[http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.2307/27552131?uid=3738032&uid=2129&uid=2&uid=70&uid=4&sid=21103493841073][http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=5365860][https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/david-alistair-yalof/pursuit-of-justices/][http://americamagazine.org/issue/culture/supreme-choices][http://www.hoover.org/publications/policy-review/article/7820] NBC News calls it "the definitive book on post-World War II Supreme Court nominees".[http://www.nbcnews.com/id/37072697/ns/politics-supreme_court/t/court-clout-no-judicial-experience-needed/#.Uvts0rTitOI]

:As far as other sources:

:*Prosecution among Friends has 1 academic review[http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/polq.12105/abstract]

:*He's also appeared as an expert on NPR more than once[http://www.npr.org/2013/05/29/187079882/the-role-of-the-attorney-general-throughout-history][http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5011732] and in other media[http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/07/weekinreview/07toner.html?pagewanted=print&_r=0][http://edition.cnn.com/2003/LAW/11/05/scotus.roadblocks/]

:He doesn't definitely meet WP:ACADEMIC but being regarded as an expert by the media might meet #7. He's co-written 2 textbooks (American Government: Historical, Popular and Global Perspectives and Constitutional Law: Civil Liberty and Individual Rights) so if they're popular enough he might meet WP:ACADEMIC #4. He's a Department Head though not a named/distinguished professor[http://www.polisci.uconn.edu/people/faculty/?david_yalof] --Colapeninsula (talk) 12:50, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

• Comment. A GS h-index of 8 is barely marginal for WP:Prof#C1, although he does have one book with over 100 cites. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:00, 12 February 2014 (UTC).
• Keep per AUTHOR #3 multiple book reviews. -- GreenC 04:11, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
• Keep. Book holdings [http://www.worldcat.org/search?qt=affiliate&ai=Washington_cmanton&q=david+yalof&wcsbtn2w.x=0&wcsbtn2w.y=0 >1000]. The article should be culled of WP:PUFF, like "notable articles", and WP:OR. Agricola44 (talk) 16:22, 18 February 2014 (UTC).
