http://cosmopolitan-life.com/. Note: You may need to click "about" in the upper-right corner to see the "About" section, which the opening paragraph of this page was copied from before it was re-written.
The list of books and list of faculty positions are "basic facts."
I've flagged Draft:Terry Williams (Sociologist) for speedy deletion as a copyright violation. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 02:27, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
I'm not seeing "significant coverage" of this person from independent, reliable sources. See WP:Your first article for links to notability guidelines.
Founding Harlem Writers Crew MIGHT meet WP:NACADEMIC but only if HWC is itself a notable "school" or "group" within the field. Founding a non-"wiki-notable" project does not meet WP:NACADEMIC.
His books MIGHT qualify him under WP:NAUTHOR, but that's not common for "academic" authors who aren't well-known outside their field.
If there is important information missing that would definitively show that this person meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, like him holding a "named chair" or "distinguished professorship," please add it, along with a citation.
He might also qualify under WP:NBIO or WP:GNG, but I'm not seeing the evidence with what is there now.
If this were to go to WP:Articles for deletion to day, at best the result would be "Draftify."
@ Palmsandbeaches: If you do not plan on addressing these issues in the next few days, please consider moving this back to Draft:Terry Williams (sociologist) until they are resolved. If you do move it, change "[[Category:...]]" to "[[:Category:...]]" to de-activate the categories while it is a draft. After moving, please use Template:db-r2 on the left-over redirect at Terry Williams (sociologist) to have it removed.
If it is still in its current state in a few days and NOT moved back to "draft"-space, expect that it will be nominated for deletion. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 17:09, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
Good morning davidwr! This feedback is definitely helpful. Thanks for your time on this. I will work on this in this week.
