Seems to be non-notable, and unlikely to meet inclusion guidelines. Additionally, someone claiming to be the subject of the article requests deletion. Prodego ^talk 18:30, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Does not meet Wikipedia standards for notability. A search of Google Scholar for EA Lerner finds a random assortment of articles in which he is one of many authors; a few articles about leishmaniasis, for which the article cites him as an expert; nothing about SLE, which the article also claims is an area of expertise; and NOTHING about the "hairbrush" invention touted in the article. If it hasn't been published in the peer-reviewed literature it is almost by definition non-notable. About half the article should be immediately deleted as being about psoriasis, not about him. Subject's father is clearly notable, but he is not. --MelanieN (talk) 14:42, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Notability is not inherited. This article sounds like an advertisement for dermatological services. The subject has contributed some sholarship to the field, not not enough to meet notability standards for academics. Vartanza (talk) 04:13, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
