Delete it quick. Autobiography written by User:Drdonaldtan, a WP:SPA. No reliable sourcing. A few non-notable prizes and awards, a few adjunct professor positions, writes for a few publications - nothing notable at all. A good example of Melanie's Law: articles in which the subject is referred to by first name instead of last name usually turn out to be non-notable. --MelanieN (talk) 01:12, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No sources on GS or GN. Looks like Melanie's law holds here. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:33, 18 September 2010 (UTC).[reply]
