Delete. No more notable than the typical academic. Still A Student 16:13, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- ""Public Entrepreneurship: Toward a Theory of Bureaucratic Political Power" does have 40 cites according to google schoolar, at least when spelt correctly. Not a hell of a lot, but google scholar misses a lot. So Neutral. Ben Aveling 17:16, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, unless "no more notable than the typical Pokemon creature," "no more notable than the typical porn star," and "no more notable than the typically inbred British peer" became policy grounds for article deletion in the last day or so. Monicasdude 01:37, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Which is intended to "set the bar rather low" and written to supplant the very much non-consensus standard you listed. Monicasdude 01:59, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Fair enough. It would seem consensus will be to keep, and I'm comfortable with that. But the "non-consensus" standard I listed was meant to reflect the standard expressed on that page. If being a typical academic makes one notable, every person with an office in my building meets the standard. And I suppose soon enough, they will all have articles.

- Keep. Contemporary Authors Online on Galenet has him credited with four books which seem to have been widely reviewed. That makes him notable enough for mine. Capitalistroadster 02:07, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
