[edit] Ian Rickard

This article does not make it clear why Mr. Rickard is notable enough to be included in an encylopaedia. --Slashme 11:47, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete "currently researching for a PhD." makes him non-notable by default. I'd be willing to change my vote if it turns out he's done major work that had press or expert attention, or if he has an excessive amount of publications to his name.- Mgm|^(talk) 12:02, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
• User:Ianrickard has properly userfied this to his user page, all that needs to be done is speedy the leftover redirect in the article namespace. — MC MasterChef :: Leave a tip — 13:05, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
• DeleteI see nothing special about this doctoral candidate. Even if he were department head he would need exceptional scientific or civic accomplishments to merit an article. Durova 16:33, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
