- Delete. Clearly a worthy educator but does not exist in sufficient RSs. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:44, 12 January 2010 (UTC).
:*This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:43, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. If one peels away the resume-like cruft and off-topic description of the New York state school systems, one finds that he seems to have been a minor functionary in the state school bureaucracy. For the period that our article lists him as having the impressive-sounding title "Supervisor of Independent and Religious Schools", I was at least able to find a small local newspaper article mentioning him [http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=2-AqAAAAIBAJ&sjid=xYkFAAAAIBAJ&pg=1266,6410434&dq=thomas-hogan+new-york+superintendent&hl=en]. It can't be used to support notability since his role in the story is so minor, and the story identifies him only as "an associate in the [state education] department's Office of Nonpublic School Services", not as a supervisor. So I think this fails WP:V as well as WP:GNG, and WP:PROF doesn't even really apply. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:45, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- Delete Nor can I find anything, which is expected, as the position is not intrinsically notable. An analogous article on Carmen Perez Hogan is now prodded. If unprodded, it should come here also . I also call attention to the article on Salamanca (city), New York; I just purged a number of similarly non-notable people without articles from the "Notable Residents" section there, but left some without articles who might actually be notable.
