: I am not the author but am an editor who wondered why BLP standards were being applied to an article about an historic site. I have no knowledge about the subject other than reading the article. Much of the article is about the head of a college who served from 1924 to 1953 when he retired. Given these dates the chances this man is still alive are negligible.  I now see the article is gone.  My concern is using strict BLP standards in this case, and now we may have lost a potentially good article about an historic site in a 3rd world country.
