Notability and sources issues. Article appears to be resume originally posted by article's subject in 2006. Minor edits since then. Oswald Glinkmeyer (talk) 13:24, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

  • Delete. I'm not convinced that he meets WP:ACADEMIC or that the lack of "associate" implies that he was a full professor. According to Professor (if we are to trust Wikipedia as a source!): "In Spanish-speaking Latin America, the term professor (profesor) is used for any one who teaches at a school, institute, technical school, vocational school, college, or university, regardless of the level of the subject matter taught or the level or ages of the students." (It appears that Institute for Strategic Clarity was initially created by the subject, too.) Location (talk) 05:49, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
  • Delete per subject's request and because he does not meet WP:ACADEMIC. He is president of the non-notable Institute for Strategic Clarity. His connection with Harvard appears tenuous; he is not listed on the Harvard Psychology Department's faculty page [http://www.isites.harvard.edu/icb/icb.do?keyword=k3007&pageid=icb.page18831], but he could be an outside lecturer like a clinical professor. Google Scholar reveals some publications and some citations for them, giving him some weak notability; certainly not enough to insist on keeping the article over the subject's objections. (NOTE: the subject put his request for deletion at the top of the page, but it was actually added after Claritas and Location made their comments.) --MelanieN (talk) 15:51, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
