:Harvard Society of Fellows is prestigious, but I don't think it rises to the level of C3, especially since it is an early career award (prior to first tenure track position) and not based on prior contribution, but rather academic promise. If you look at the Wikipedia page for Junior Fellows at the Harvard Society of Fellows, the ones listed with Wikipedia entries are all senior academic economists and full professors with much, much longer CVs and contributions to the profession who were fellows long ago. In many cases their membership in the Harvard Society of Fellows as a junior fellow is not even mentioned on their wikipedia pages, indicating the stature of the award.[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Harvard_Junior_Fellows#Economics]] [[User:3andfourquarters|3andfourquarters]] ([[User talk:3andfourquarters|talk]]) 21:21, 26 March 2011 (UTC) |

*'''Weak Keep''' - It does reek of self-promotion, but he's a notable person (almost every person I've met working in economics knows his name). I suggest we remove the Early Life section and the other quotes, and keep the rest. [[User:Prochron|Prochron]] ([[User talk:Prochron|talk]]) 00:39, 27 March 2011 (UTC) |

Notability per WM: Notability (academics) 3andfourquarters (talk) 20:57, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
I proposed for deletion because the subject is not a notable academic per Wikipedia guidelines. The article does not justify notability per those guidelines, and reads like self promotion. 3andfourquarters (talk) 21:04, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
- Weak Keep That bio is pretty impressive, I'd go so far as to say notable. Does "Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows" qualify under WP:PROF C3? Even if not under C3, I think he is notable enough to keep an article, which by the way is very well cited. Also, to argue WP:CRYSTAL, which is not valid, but I'm going to anyway, I would be surprised if he didn't meet notability criteria in the near future if you think he doesn't now.
