Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/George M. Zinkhan
When I stumbled on this article yesterday, it contained almost exclusively information about the alleged crime. I spend some time digging up stuff about his career (not too difficult, given his detailed CV on the university website). I was surprised myself to see how easily Zinkhan passes the bar for several of the notability criteria of . I also redirected several other articles to this one (even though I almost got into an edit war with someone who thought all three victims "deserved" their own articles; thanks for your help there Ukexpat :-). I agree with DGG that the article needs to be monitored and the current version, giving less emphasis to the alleged crime (even if at some point the crime would be proven and there would be a conviction). Risker is right that it is the other stuff that makes Zinkhan notable, not the alleged crime which is all too common. One question to Risker (just for my education), how does the current article not meet our naming conventions
