Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Daniel Biss
Fails the notability criteria of  on at least two counts.  A politician, according to the policy guideline, is notable if he/she ''"held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office"'' and also states that ''"being...an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of 'significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article'.''" Neither of these criterion are true in this case, so Biss is not notable as a politician, which leaves his achievements as an academic.  The notability guidelines are set out at  using the so-called ''professor test''.  In short, an academic must hold high office (such distinguished professor), undertaken breakthrough research or received a highly prestigious academic award to be considered notable.  Again, this is not the case with Biss.  In summary, not notable as either a politician or an academic
