Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Boonsong Chaisingkananont
I agree with DGG's comment above and was going to say much the same. That the notability is related to his job is important, and notable cases like this involving academic freedom should be kept as a general principle.  In fact he ''does'' satisfy  - under #7 "The person has made substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity." ( or #4 "The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions.")  BLP1E generally advises merging, not deletion, though it is frequently misapplied that way.  Because he is notable for something integral to his lifework as an academic,  it is illogical to use it here. If an academic or author writes one paper or book that is important enough, that can make him notable.  Should we delete such articles? Should Chaisingkananont get accused of Lese majeste against a different king
