Deletion of John Brignell

Comment: I am of the opinion that, per , even full professors require some sort of ''independent'' evidence of notability - and that is missing from all versions of the article. It would seem that the information removed from the article contained no independent or secondary sources, but simply a lengthy exposition of Brignell's views as sourced to his website. To me, the article fails  either way, and I'd have nominated it whether or not that information had been removed. But DGG's comments do give me pause, because he always takes a very well-considered approach to AfD's
