Deletion of Jack Greenberg (lawyer)

Comment: If notability were marginal, it would be one thing, but this isn't even a remotely close case.  (Please discount my : Greenberg has long been one of my heroes.)  I hope whatever nasties that prompted the OTRS ticket get handled, and the article gets appropriately sourced and brought up to the appropriate level of quality, but quality issues should be addressed separately from deletion issues.  If there's a risk of vandalism and BLP violations, then provide appropriate protection for the article

Comment: this is not close to being a |borderline case.  Now, I am a borderline case, but not Jack Greenberg.  I'll |erase the unsourced material myself

Comment: a largely non-notable lawyer? He's argued before the Supreme Court in very influential cases, he's one of six leaders the NAACP Legal Defense has had. I can't find hard numbers on the Presidential Citizens Medal, but it looks like presidents give out no more than 30 a year, so there's at most 1200 of them floating around. His academics alone meet . He well and clearly meets Wikipedia standards for entry. His request doesn't override that fact

Comment: Clearly meets the criteria of . Meets # 1 (and only has to meet one criterion), in that he has made significant impact in his scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources. May meet # 2 in that he has received a highly prestigious award or honor at a national level -- if his awards are considered to be for his academic work. Meets # 6 in that he has held a major highest-level elected or appointed academic post at an academic institution. And finally, he meets the general notability requirement of  in that he has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject. I don't see what wikipedia policy supports deleting the article because he requests that it be deleted (nor, as yet, do those who hang their hat on that reason cite one), and imagine that if there is such a policy we will shortly see the deletion of the articles on Bernie Madoff, Anwar al-Awlaki, and assorted other felons, terrorists, and individuals of questionable repute
