Frederick Sontag

Not WP:Notable. The article only tells us two things about him. He wrote a book on the Unification Church in 1977 which attracted some attention. And he was the victim of a violent attack in 2000 which was reported by the LA Times. Other than that Kris Kristofferson says he's a good teacher. There is really no life story in this "biography."

Delete: highly questionable that he meets any of the criteria in WP:ACADEMIC, plus is a poster-boy for the explicit exception "It is possible for an academic to be notable according to this standard, and yet not be an appropriate topic for coverage in Wikipedia because of a lack of reliable, independent sources on the subject."

hmmm...Delete... I tried to save the page (which was started by a friend) but could not come up with any real substantial coverage of him in secondary sources. (That's WP:N) Steve Dufour (talk) 15:47, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: No one objected to this article until I linked to his Sun Myung Moon interview. I think the motive behind the delete initiative is to suppress factual information about the Unification Church.
