Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Meade Emory
per comments by Sailsbystars, THF and Xxanthippe.  The ''Seattle Times'' piece sure looks like a paid obit which no more represents the views of the ''Times'' than would a paid ad by Microsoft.  It's interesting that Emory wrote a few pieces for the ''New York Times'', but I don't think that's enough for him to be notable per . As far as the obit by Ted Van Dyk, he and Emory seem to be old friends, so it's not surprising that Van Dyk would write an obit, and that also means that Van Dyk is not in a good position to objectively report Emory's significance
