Delete due to a lack of quotes and a Wikipedia article. 03isrflo62410 (talk) 20:46, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Delete If he holds a named chair at BU, he is eligible for a Wikipedia article per NAcademic. But the only remotely quotable quote here is the ungrammatical "Make sure the person whom you think wronged you is the person who wronged you." Not really enough for an article, IMO.

Keep: There are quotes by him. and There are many wikiquote articles without wikipedia articles, so "No Wikipedia article" is not a good argument. Y-S.Ko (talk) 06:55, 19 May 2023 (UTC) Weak keep: I'm pretty borderline on this. I think Y-S.Ko has done just about enough to save it. As fair as I can tell there's shedload of professors at BU so that wouldn't save him. His Estonian Wikipedia article (why ET I ask myself?) automatically provides a wikidata item, as would the VIAF article. There's a good spread of references. -- DeirgeDeltac 10:56, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Actually, "no Wikipedia article" is one of the main reasons to delete a Wikiquote page for non-notability; the few Wikiquote pages I've created for people who didn't have Wikipedia articles have been uniformly questioned by the powers that be. Markjoseph125 (talk) 21:14, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
