Delete. Not seeing anything to meet WP:PROF here. There's a moderately cited textbook with academic publisher with a single coauthor, but we'd really be looking for at least two such to make it worth searching for reviews to support notability under WP:AUTHOR. Espresso Addict (talk) 04:53, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. One book isn't going to pass WP:AUTHOR as above. Neither his citation record nor the other biographical details in the article suggest a pass of any of the WP:PROF criteria. That leaves WP:GNG but none of the sources in the article are the sort of in-depth independent and reliably-published coverage of Ismay needed for that, nor did my external searches find any. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:58, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails GNG and criterion for the inclusion of an author page. Easy call to delete. Go4thProsper (talk) 15:25, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - sorry, but we almost never keep untenured college teachers. Bearian (talk) 03:00, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
