long-standing unreferenced BLP on an academic of marginal notability at best. I can find no reliable independent sources that would allow for the writing of a proper biography of this person. Contested prod. Bali ultimate (talk) 19:52, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

: Also, just stubbed it [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Michael_Fulford&action=historysubmit&diff=338415715&oldid=338414236] since it was a long-standing copyvio from here [http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/archaeology/excavations_techniques/city_dead_01.shtml].Bali ultimate (talk) 19:58, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

  • (after expanding it) Keep. Michael Fulford is a ‘local’ authority specialised in the archaeology of Silchester and he's written for prestigious collections like The Cambridge Ancient History and Companion to Roman Britain. It’s difficult to find stuff on living scholars, but I think I’ve managed to pull decent enough material to save it from deletion. Cavila (talk) 14:29, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

  • Keep. Among other things he is an elected Fellow of the British Academy. I think that already satisfies WP:PROF#3. Nsk92 (talk) 22:02, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Keep. Decent cites and holds significant positions. Xxanthippe (talk) 09:59, 19 January 2010 (UTC).
  • Keep as he passes WP:PROF by virtue of his FBA, if nothing else. BencherliteTalk 23:09, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
  • keep per Nsk92. Pete.Hurd (talk) 23:40, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Comment. Nominators should follow WP:BEFORE before nominating an article for AfD, otherwise the time of other editors may be wasted. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:57, 21 January 2010 (UTC).
