Run-of-the-mill person. Fails
]- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators and Alabama. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:31, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails WP:Prof#C1 on GS cites in a highly cited field. No pass of GNG. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:09, 6 April 2022 (UTC).]
- Comment: would be notable if the claim in the lead were true: helping to "launch and facilitate desegregation in the United States education system" is a pretty big thing. But the cited sources don't really back up that claim. StAnselm (talk) 16:09, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails notability, misleading/improperly-sourced. In my own research I found no sources linking subject to academics and segregation, or anything of note. NiklausGerard (talk) 20:30, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete since subject does not clear the notability hurdle. All we have are name-drops in listings such as this or in articles about someone else entirely, such as this reference in an article about Conley's descendant sockpuppet with many a now-deleted text in their record does not help at all. -The Gnome (talk) 20:17, 12 April 2022 (UTC)]
