In 2009, I prod'd it; prod was removed by an editor. Two more prods came today, so I figured an AFD is due. No indication of meeting WP:PROFESSOR or WP:AUTHOR, no references despite being tagged since January 2009. Managing Urban America, the best claim for notability, is also up for deletion.

- Keep. Managing Urban America has been through at least six editions, suggesting that its author passes criterion 4 WP:PROF as the author of a widely-used textbook. See http://www.cqpress.com/product/Managing-Urban.html#testimonials for comments from other academics. - Eastmain (talk • contribs) 03:26, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. Worldcat reports 858 library holdings for all editions of Managing Urban America. See http://www.worldcat.org/search?q=isbn:1568029306 – Eastmain (talk • contribs) 03:44, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Added reference to his named chair at Oklahoma, which qualifies for WP:PROFESSOR. Edward Vielmetti (talk) 05:29, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per Edward Vielmetti and per WP:PROF #5. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:19, 23 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Looks like a GS h index around 20+ and passes WP:Prof #1. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:20, 24 January 2010 (UTC).[reply]
- Withdraw nomination per WP:SNOW and arguments of above users. But the article still needs much improvement, as there isn't a single secondary source. THF (talk) 04:05, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
