Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kevin Houston
Senior lecturer is a permanent position (the UK analogue of tenure) immediately below the top position of Professor, together with Reader. It is therefore somewhere in between tenured Associate professor and Full professor in the US, probably closer to Full professor, but these things vary with the university.  I find the academic notability line a difficult one to draw, and don't find  a particularly clear or compelling guideline. I don't see, for example, how deleting this article would |improve the encyclopedia. The article on Brian Bowditch was recently Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Brian_Bowditch|kept. He is a professor of course, but I can think of at least one UK professor :-) who doesn't have an article (and shouldn't in my view) although his publication record is comparable to Houston's. Now that this article has been brought for deletion, it may set a poor precedent to keep it
