Deletion

This is one of several pages I have put up for deletion. All of these pages are by the same author (account now deleted), about professors from the same university. While I will assume good faith that it is not the school self-promoting, the fact remains that the only sources for notability on these articles are the professor's own publications and their personal pages on the university's website, which does not meet WP:NOTE. Therefore, I have proposed them for deletion, pending any genuine sources on their notability existing.2601:405:4400:9420:D086:AC36:FF13:3352 (talk) 23:38, 19 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

As discussed elsewhere, Esquith has won awards for various reasons, but those reasons alone do not equate to notability. Across every reputable award-giving organizations, millions of people have received awards. The receipt of those awards does not make a living person notable, and I believe that is what is going on here. PerpetuityGrat (talk) 23:43, 19 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
