Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peter N. Kirstein
The situation with this article is actually more complicated than it appears at first glance, as I'll try to explain. Indeed, the suject does not seem to be notable as a historian, and I believe he does not pass . As DGG notes, much of the article reads rather propotional now. There is one fairly well cited paper in GScholar, but that seems to be about it. I could not find any published reviews of his book(s) or other writings. He has some publications on the subject of academic freedom and tenure but they received only a few citations, and his activities in this area do not appear to have received significant coverage, with one exception. The present version of the article contains a weirdly written unsourced section 'E-mail Exchange'. However, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Peter_N._Kirstein&direction=prev&oldid=672873593 an earlier version of the article contains a different, much longer, version of that section, with several sources, including http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/1785699/detail.htmlhttp://hnn.us/articles/1095.htmlhttp://chronicle.com/free/v49/i15/15a01402.htm. There was also a WSJ editorial about this controversy https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB1037064158123750748. At some point in 2015 an IP editor from near Gary, Indiana
