Deletion of Paul Frampton

Comment: obviously -- Frampton easily meets our notability standards.  He was notable () purely on the basis of his academic profile, i.e., before the drugs incident.  That incident doesn't make him less notable -- rather the opposite

Comment: as currently and repeatedly being used as a coatrack for the ''"He is a CRIMINAL"''  editors who seem to pop up so often.    The concept that this single event is ''"making him more notable!"'' is contrary to any common sense approach to biographies of living persons on Wikipedia.  Wikipedia being used as a "public pillory" is not the intent of Wikipedia, though, again, I have found some editors more intent on such sensational tabloidification  of this project than of seeking to give important information to readers.  I ask any closer, moreover, to disregard opinions that favour this |tabloid use of this encyclopedia

Comment: Collect and Only in death have won me over to their point of view. This article must be deleted to comply with . {{tq|Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid: it is not Wikipedia's job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives; the possibility of harm to living subjects must always be considered when exercising editorial judgment.}} Presumption in favor of privacy -- Avoid victimization:  {{tq|This is of particular importance when dealing with living individuals whose notability stems largely or entirely from being victims of another's actions. Wikipedia editors must not act, intentionally or otherwise, in a way that amounts to participating in or prolonging the victimization.}} It is highly plausible that Frampton is the victim of a scam. Deletion of BLP's of relatively unknown subjects: {{tq|Where the subject of a BLP has requested deletion, the deletion policy says: "Discussions concerning biographical articles of relatively unknown, non-public figures, where the subject has requested deletion and there is no rough consensus, maybe closed as delete."}} While Frampton is an accomplished and notable academic, he is not a publicity seeker. Even his book about the scam has not been widely promoted. See  for guidance on establishing whether an individual is a public figure. Notability is not the same thing as high-profile.  says {{tq|Material that may adversely affect a person's reputation should be treated with special care; in many jurisdictions, repeating a defamatory claim is actionable, and there are additional protections for subjects who are not public figures
