Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mark Patton (archaeologist)
From the #General notes:|General notes section of : ''It is possible for an academic to be notable according to this standard, and yet not be an appropriate topic for coverage in Wikipedia because of a lack of reliable, independent sources on the subject. Every topic on Wikipedia must be one for which sources exist; see Wikipedia:Verifiability. For the routine uncontroversial details of a career, official institutional and professional sources are accepted as sourcing for those details.'' So, no sources no keep. As for the unsigned delete vote above,  does mention being an elected member of the Royal Society as a qualification, the subject of this article is aledgedly an elected member of the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures & Commerce, I do not know enough about these institutions to say if one is more prestegious or selective than the other, but again without verification the article should not be kept
