Stevemidgley (talk) 20:31, 11 September 2024 (UTC) :@Stevemidgley, for someone like this you're looking at WP:NPROF. Most of the links you've given aren't useful here (no one really cares, for notability purposes, if someone has made such-and-such a presentation somewhere), but an associate dean at Yale sounds like someone pretty likely to be notable. Unfortunately in this case it looks like he may have that job because he's good at fundraising, which isn't the same thing as being a notable professor. Have a look at the guidelines at WP:NPROF and see what you think. -- asilvering (talk) 20:38, 11 September 2024 (UTC) Question about notability and a new subject Kevin Hays jazz pianist How to reduce discord between Wikipedians?
