Much like the article on Dr. Haas's colleague, Dr. Perrucci, this article raises concerns about the sourcing used and the notability of the individual covered. The sourcing is clearly problematic, as it is entirely composed of newspaper articles, obituaries, and Dr. Haas's dissertation. The notability may be argued, but as of right now, based on the content of the article and the lack of additional information, it seems to me that it is fairly clear it does not meet guidelines listed in Wikipedia:Notability (academics). Any additional comments or thoughts would be appreciated! nf utvol (talk) 12:48, 19 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
I have some sympathy with this comment and so deletion would likely not be uncontroversial hence PROD is unsuitable. The references are not all primary (but may have other shortcomings). The general motability guidelines need to be considered as well as those for academics. Thincat (talk) 12:29, 21 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Which articles are you referencing that aren't primary? They are all either local newspaper clippings, obituaries, the subject's disseration, or the single case of a biography from the institution where she taught. It's my understanding that all of those would be considered primary sources. What other general notability guidelines should be considered other than those for an academic?nf utvol (talk) 00:54, 22 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
