Cheri Florance[edit]

Tagged {{db-bio}} but notability is asserted. Adjunct professor, does not appear to pass WP:PROF at a quick glance. Guy (Help!) 11:42, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, which has nothing to do with Ms. Florance but with the ill manner in which the article is written. needs a complete re-work. I'll keep my vote to see if something happens before the end of this AfD. Alf photoman 16:18, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I do not feel that she passes WP:PROF under present guidelines. I am happy that she was able to educate her autistic son, but so have very many other people, both academics and non-academics.--Anthony.bradbury 22:42, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I'm suspicious that parent1 is Cheri Florence, supposedly the discoverer of the "Florence Syndrome," and her amazon reviewer are certainly mixed. Static Universe 16:34, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

strong keep: Cognitive therapies have significant implications for the rapidly growing autistic community, and this author evidences keen insight from a learned perspective. Ombudsman 08:25, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I am in the field and have never heard of her or her methods which look distinctly fringe to me. She has not published in scholarly journals since the early 1980s, as far as I can see. I was also a bit disturbed to find a new link to her page on the Speech therapy page, and seems like links have been spread around other autism related articles a fair bit. It looks a bit like advertising to me. --Slp1 12:39, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete First time in ages I've voted to delete a professor. But she has only two articles in PubMed and is clearly not notable as such. BUT is she perhaps notable on the grounds of popular authorship? DGG 07:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
