Deletion of Douglas D. Taylor (3rd nomination)

Comment: I appear to have been the sole delete commenter in the two previous AfDs, based on  issues regarding the quality of sourcing of negative material in the article. I now believe that the retraction is covered at an appropriate level of detail and an appropriate quality of sourcing. Also, his association with OMICS seems to be covered only by OMICS-affiliated sources, was only at the level of editorial board membership, and (though dubious) does not rise to the level of academic misconduct; I agree with its removal from the article. So I think the negative material is now handled appropriately. Otherwise, his citation record gives him a pass of #C1

Comment: I've removed the controversial material, which was a blatant violation of . Predatory journals frequently list academics on their 'editorial boards' without their consent or knowledge, and other than that there was no source to back up the claim that Taylor is/was actually involved with OMICs. The retraction is due to dodgy figures in a multi-authored paper, so a very minor controversy indeed, and the only source we had for it was the blog Retraction Watch. With that gone, there isn't much of the article left
