Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Julia Shaw (psychologist)
I gotta say as the original author and 10 year long Wikipedian I'm bit miffed at the style of this afd and the claims and insinuations coming with it. First of all it is customary to ask the author before an afd or at least inform him about, which didn't happen here. Secondly the insinuation that article was created for promtional reason in several wikipedia and presumably (?) by the same person is simply not true. I have no idea, who created the French and Dutch versions and why. If I had to guess, they were probably created by people simply picking up the English version and translating it, which is not uncommon. In any case I've created the English and the German version and certainly not for promotional reasons and I have no connection to the article's subject whatsoever. The rationality behind the notability and the reason for the article's creation is not really |notable as an academic in the sense of a research academic, but as tv/media/press pundit and book author on the false memory complex, which had been the subject of controversial debates in the past. She was prominently featured as a pundit in false memory documentary broadcasted by major tv channels (in Germany iirc by ZDF and later 3sat (http://www.3sat.de/mediathek/?mode=play&obj=61427 ''Das getäuschte Gedächnis'' (the fooled memory) and Shaw was also personally featured by 3sat http://www.3sat.de/mediathek/?mode=play&obj=61654 here and appeared also on a http://www.tvweeklynow.com/news-blogs/news-blogs-RicksPicks/nova-memory-hackers-unlocks-the-human-memory-and-the-latest-science-of-implanting-editing-and-erasing-memories.htm|PBS Nova documentary), that was the reason for the article's creation, to provide some background and profile of somebody appearing as prominent (mainstream) media pundit on a (formerly?) controversial issue
