Notability[edit]

Beatriz Colomina is a famous architecture historian. She is already referenced in a couple of Wiki entries, notably in Mark Wigley and in postmodern architecture. However, there is another entry with the same title, Beatriz colomina (without a capital C). While the latter entry should be deleted, I disagree with this entry being recommended for deletion. It is relevant to people interested by architectural history, theory and criticism and it should be expanded. Pictogramfanzine 22:18, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

since I was not the author[edit]

I can and have removed the tag. Faculty as major research universities are often notable, and speedy is only for articles on subjects who make no claims to notability whatsoever. DGG 00:44, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable, moving for deletion[edit]

The standards of notability under WP:Academic:
  1. The person's research has made significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.
   2. The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.
   3. The person is or has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a Fellow of a major scholarly society for which that is a highly selective honor (e.g., the IEEE).
   4. The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions.
   5. The person holds or has held a named chair appointment or "Distinguished Professor" appointment at a major institution of higher education and research (or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon).
   6. The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed academic post at a major academic institution or major academic society.
   7. The person has made substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.
   8. The person is or has been the head or chief editor of a major well-established academic journal in their subject area.
   9. The person is in a field of literature (e.g writer or poet) or the fine arts (e.g., musician, composer, artist), and meets the standards for notability in that art, such as WP:CREATIVE or WP:MUSIC. 

She has accomplished none of these, so I am making a Request For Deletion--124.170.111.132 (talk) 09:04, 9 April 2014 (UTC).[reply]
