Jerry ought to continue to be on wikipedia, but the article should be changed to focus on his stuff as an academic. Per wiki policies, Zandstra is notable because of the numerous articles he has published (many more than the average college professor) and the fact that he is an international lecturer and policy expert.

- If you think that the article should stay in wikipedia, you should delete the notice of proposed deletion from the article itself. As the notice says, if no one does that, the article can be deleted without further discussion.
- For what it's worth, when I did a google search, virtually all of the top 200 or so results seemed to be about him running as a candidate. John Broughton 13:09, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- If you think that he meets WP:PROF you are free to write an article. The current version states that he has published numerous articles in newspapers, not the kind of article that meets WP:PROF. JChap (talk • contribs) 22:13, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- note I am not 100% on Wiki-rules, but he is well known as a Director of the Acton Institute, a fairly well-known think tank 66.72.215.225 14:52, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
- According to this page, he is a senior fellow, not a director. [1]. I don't think we have articles about anyone else connected to the Acton Institute except its president. -Will Beback 16:47, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
