The result was keep. I was choosing between no consensus and keep; it is borderline, and I have chosen keep just because the later votes are all keep. In any case, the article will not be deleted for now.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:58, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

WP:BLP of a psychologist and academic, making no real or properly sourced claim of notability for it — it's really little more than a straight repost of his own CV, and is sourced exclusively to a PDF of, guess what, his own CV. This is not how a person gets a Wikipedia article. He might qualify if something substantive and reliably sourced could be written about him — but Wikipedia is not LinkedIn, so nothing claimed here entitles him to keep an article that's written and sourced like this.

  • Delete. Clinical psychologist with a few publications. Appears to fail GNG. Doesn't appear to qualify as an academic. Happy to listen to arguments to the contrary. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 18:59, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

  • Keep perhaps as the Professor of Psychology at Erlangen University would seem convincing and notable enough for an article. If not, then delete I suppose if the current article is still questionable. Notifying {{U|DGG}} for analysis. SwisterTwister talk 05:12, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
  • Keep. Clearly notable as both WP:PROF and WP:AUTHOR. Writer of major textbooks is German and English. 3rd party verification needs to be added for the publications. His official CV is fine for the rest. DGG ( talk ) 05:59, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

::Has written textbooks, but are they "major"? Evidence based on academic cites or otherwise would be appreciated. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 19:50, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
