Nominated for deletion on the grounds that the subject doesn't meet the notability criteria set out at Wikipedia:Notability (academics)#Criteria. According to Google Scholar Gil-White has an h index of 12. I don't know what is typical in the field of Anthropology, but to me that looks like the publishing record of a junior academic. That would be consistent with his current obscure employment status. As far as I can see, Gil-White's sole claim to fame was his activism/notoriety, which at this point is ancient history and long forgotten. T0mpr1c3 (talk) 00:00, 25 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The article does not even come close to passing GNG. All the sources are to his own works or websites. His work does not rise to the level of impacting his discipline broadly defined. And nothing else comes even close to showing notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:18, 30 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
