Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael L. Radelet
It doesn't matter what the subject thinks, it only matter whether he is notable or not (well, that and  stuff). The article doesn't seem to have BLP issues, it is hardly quality coverage, but it is on par with what we usually have (often written by the subjects themselves, or by their friends/students/etc.). The subject passes  - Google Scholar shows numerous articles by him (often co-authored, but still...) with 200+, a lot more with 100+, citations. He has a solo-authored publication in American Sociological Review, that's a flagship sociological journal. As far as works about him and his impact, there's not much (he isn't dead yet, so no obituaries, etc.) but I found {{cite book|author1=C. Ronald Huff|author2=Martin Killias|title=Wrongful Convictions and Miscarriages of Justice: Causes and Remedies in North American and European Criminal Justice Systems|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8WGtUenf5mAC&pg=PA402|year=2013|publisher=Routledge|isbn=978-0-415-53993-7|pages=402–}}: "His work on erroneous convictions... is widely credited with introducing the "innocence argument" into contemporary death penalty debates". Granted, that's from a section on contributor's biographies and it might have been written by him, but it is in a reliably-published academic book. Overall, I think he is on the notable side of notability, and that means his bio stays. If the subject thinks there are inaccuracies/bias, he should be more clear and report them on the talk page/here/help forum, and we can take a look at fixing the article. Also ping
