Roshko deletion edit of Temple University Beasley School of Law

Hello Arkincongile. Sorry, but as I noted in my edit, Mr. Roshko does not have WP:N. Just being appointed an administrative law judge does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the Wikipedia general notability guidelines. The dean of a law school or president of a university does not determine notability, Wikipedia standards do. There are approximately 1700 federal ALJs nationwide, and the Social Security Administration (SSA) employs about 1500 of them, the only requirements are being licensed and authorized to practice law and seven years of experience in litigation or administrative law as a licensed attorney, and they are not notable per se. See, Wikipedia:WikiProject United States courts and judges/Notability#Administrative law judges - “Judges who are hired by government agencies are not inherently notable, but holding such a position is evidence of notability that can be established by other strong indicia of notability (emphasis supplied). In particular, administrative law judges who serve for a comparatively long time, who preside over important cases, or whose opinions are often cited by higher courts, are highly likely to be notable.” Mr. Roshko only served three years (1998-2000) for the SSA. Even if those indices were otherwise met, Mr. Rothko must still meet WP:GNG requirements - Mr. Roshko obviously does not. Having one “sprout” mention in Ballotpedia is not “significant coverage” per WP:SIGCOV.

I hope my reply helps you understand Wikipedia notability guidelines. If you still argue that my edit was wrong, you should try WP:CONTENTDISPUTE. If you feel other alumni should have been deleted, feel free, but you must do so per Wikipedia guidelines and having a Wikipedia article for an alumnus (for example, Amy Banse) argues against this. By the way, if “the school itself monitors the webpage”, so long as there is no WP:COI problem, you might ask the school to provide or, perhaps, you could provide, the missing additional citations for verification as noted at the top of the Temple University Beasley School of Law page. Thank you for bringing forth you concern. Kind regards, Quaerens-veritatem (talk) 05:11, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
