Comment. Does he pass WP:PROF? Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:52, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Does not seem to meet any of the possible criteria in WP:PROF, at least verifiably, with low to no academic impact, no major awards, no top-level posts or editorial roles, etc. Search does not find WP:SIGCOV, so WP:GNG not met either. Added find sources AFD template for Greek name from article just to be thorough. Bakazaka (talk) 23:23, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Notable per Wikipedia:Notability (academics). References can and should be improved, but no compliance with WP:Before. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 11:22, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- And what makes you think that I did not research it beforehand? The Banner talk 13:02, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion is the final choice only when the article is beyond salvage. Cart before the horse. If you read the cited materials, I assume you would not arrive where you did. You have skipped past the river only to magically appear on the other side. But we can agree to disagree. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 13:12, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ow, you still think somebody can deliver a substandard article and then a third party is mandatory to fix it? Maybe you skipped the river a few times. The Banner talk 15:57, 21 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't create this article. Nor did I say you should fix it. We are not the only editors in Wikipedia, and the world doesn't revolve around us. Cheers. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 16:33, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Per nomination; just an academic like anybody else. And another thing: There is not really such a thing -as stated in the article- like "Webster University in Athens, Greece" etc. According to the Greek Constitution only the Greek state-run Universities in Greece are considered to be "universities". Any other foreing faculty or similar educational establishement operating in Greek territory is functioning as privately run business, as schools of liberal arts etc., even if they have a connection with universities abroad, and style themselves commercially as "universities" (usualy as the "Athens Campus" of a foreing University, e.g. [1]; actually just a "study-abroad program", not a real university, according to the Greek law). ——Chalk19 (talk) 08:43, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

PS. As far as the "12 televised episodes of the documentary From Aristotle to Hawking, a Pissanos Production" (cf. [2]) is concerned, Pavlos/Paul Pissanos (in Greek: Παύλος Πισσάνος) is a rather peculiar or absurd "philosopher" who self-publishes his books and self-produces his TV series or DVDs. His TV show "Απόκρυφη αρμονία" (=Apocryphal Harmony; an example of a full show: [3]) was hosted in a minor, no mainstream Greek TV station, one of those of the lowest-rated channels of Greek TV. ——Chalk19 (talk) 09:08, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
