Highly promotional biography that does not assert notability. Mostly passing mentions, so doesn't meet GNG. Is not a notable professor either, nor is he notable for his largely uncited "studies" that rarely, if ever, appear in peer-reviewed publications. At the very best this is WP:TOOSOON, at worst basic spam. Ref spam is being used to hide the fact that none of these sources are in-depth. YesMovementEtTU (talk) 03:55, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete~~Comment~~ - I agree that the article needs some work regarding promotional tone - particularly the intro which blurs the situation through all the name-dropping. And it needs better sources than IMdB, for instance. But he has widespread coverage in national news sources. I'll take a crack at editing and see if I can find some more in-depth coverage.--CaroleHenson (talk) 04:54, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I changed my mind once I saw how much of the content shouldn't be in the body of the article - and likely not even in notes. I will say WP:TOOSOON on this one. There was nothing in Google scholar that he had written, there's someone in WorldCat about Kim Kardashian, and since the article mentions the number of studies he does - but they are not published, I cannot establish notability.--CaroleHenson (talk) 05:49, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
