This academic fails WP:NACADEMICS Mrfrobinson (talk) 00:26, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy per A7: There's just no assertion of notability in this article. However, having reviewed the presented sources, I suspect that Yu may be notable. The big problem here is the article has so little content and context (though possibly enough to get it past A3)... despite it being a BLP. The fact that half of the two-sentence article is an opinion on curriculum design, rather than any discussion of the subject's research and publications (which are what would make him notable as an academic) may in fact work to violate WP:BLP via WP:DUE insofar as it gives a false impression of why the subject is significant. While AfD isn't for cleanup, we don't need to reach an AfD decision here. —/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 07:56, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
