A tag has been placed on Stephen Roulac, PhD, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Status and Advice

[edit]

As reviewing administrator, I deleted the article. There is no doubt he is notable. But WP does not reprint CVs. You should also be aware that the Wikipedia community strongly discourages articles written by individuals close to a subject because of the difficulty in writing objectively about your organization, yourself, your family, or your work, in line with WP:Conflict of interest

Basic cleanup steps are:

  1. Remove all "Professor", "Prof.", "Doctor" and "Dr.", Ph.D, or M.D except in the lede sentence or as actual titles of positions or degrees. Use the last name alone, or the word "he". except in the lede sentence.
  2. remove all terms of praise: famous, renowned, prestigious, world-wide, transformative, seminal, ground-breaking, etc. referring to either people or institutions or discoveries; even "well-known". The accomplishments themselves should show it. . For a phrase such as " His research has been ranked first, second, third or fourth in several studies of leading property scholars, from some 70 countries." we need a reference to the exact published ranking in a third party source. This also goes in a paragraph about Honors or Reputation, not in the lede paragraph.
  3. Consider replacing "expert" with "specialist". Replace "across" with "in" or, if documented, "throughhout" Remove all similar jargon.
  4. Past president of the American Real Estate Society is notable, and needs a reference. Being on an editorial board of a journal is much less important.
  5. We need basic biography: birth place and date, list of degrees received and dates, title of doctoral thesis, name of doctoral advisor.
  6. If the subject has written books, list them--don't just say "10 books"--they;re major factors in notability. But do not include a list of all other publications.. Include only the 2 or 3 most important peer-reviewed articles( Include a link to the online version if it exists); give citation data to show the importance. Remove miscellaneous publications and conferences.
  7. Books need to be sourced to Worldcat, not Amazon or the publisher. (and they need references to book reviews) Bio facts are sourced to the person's official page at the university. These should all be formatted as references, so there will be a conventional reference list.

I hope this helps. If there are any questions ask me; I have considerable experience here with articles on academics. DGG ( talk ) 04:27, 7 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
