Fails WP:ACADEMIC. My requests for evidence of notability and for further sourcing keep getting removed. No more edit warring, let's decide this. Using his page at London School of Economics is not a reliable source, as it's a primary source. Woogee (talk) 05:10, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP Passes WP:ACADEMIC. I started the article at 23:09 March 31st and it got tagged with 3 tags at 23:10 - which I removed as I was editing the article, had a citation in and I disputed the relevance/appropriateness of the tags as the citation was to the LSEs page which I think is a reputable source. Removed tags again 3 minutes later and have added what I think is sufficient evidence to pass our criteria. Full prof at LSE - many articles - published noted and reviewed text books - reviews cited - worked on a noted World Bank report - cited. (Msrasnw (talk) 09:52, 4 April 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Delete, as fails WP:ACADEMIC. I can't find any notable references to his work to indicate that it is important enough to meet notability criteria. &dorno rocks. (talk) 10:39, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, available sourcing/referencing appears to demonstrate satisfaction of the GNG. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 22:02, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - full professor, plenty of good cites. Bearian (talk) 23:10, 5 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
