Jordan Segall

I originally tagged this for speedy deletion as "little or no content", but the tag was removed. Segall gets 15 hits on Google, and none of them appear to establish notability. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:24, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Speedy, period. Entire article is "Jordan Segall is a noted University of Chicago scholar". The creator can't even be bothered to tell us in which field - but we have to reasearch it to discuss notability. If he is notable let someone else create a proper article later! --Doc (?) 12:50, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. "Jordan Segal" + Chicago gets 5 google hits (none relevant), ergo this "scholar" is not "noted". -- BD2412 ^talk 13:02, 2005 Jun 3 (UTC)
• Speedy delete for lack of content. Also this google search [1] has one relevant link (a massive list of signatures). He's completely unnotable. --Scimitar 14:02, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Does not destinguish how he is notable
• Delete. I'm normally rather keen on turning stub articles on tenured academics and top researchers into proper articles, but searching the University of Chicago website finds a strong suggestion that a Mr Jordan Dentler Segall is an undergraduate, and therefore not worth an article [2].

• Delete. I UC-Hyde Park searched him, and he comes up as both staff and student. Though there's a slight possibility that he's a remarkable grad student with significant publications... there's a better chance that he's not.216.158.31.195 16:50, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete nn vanity. Not to mention lack of content. --Etacar11 18:19, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, lack of content, context and relevant google hits. Noted scholars have a web presence in this era. Mgm|^(talk) 19:26, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)
• This article qualifies for speedy deletion following article criterion 1. So done. Denni☯ 03:07, 2005 Jun 4 (UTC)
