Fails WP:GNG, page reads like WP:RESUME. Technically satisfies criteria 6 of WP:NACADEMIC but is in a position of power at a for-profit university (business) as opposed to a traditional university. Unsure if this qualifies. 30Four (talk) 04:39, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral - TJMSmith you need to do some editing to this article. It does indeed look like a resume, but that's because you put it together like a list of accomplishments. Please consider re-working this article into a flowing prose article, paragraphs, etc. — Maile (talk) 00:30, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This is written as a professional profile, and WP:NOTLINKEDIN. —siro χ o 01:00, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Not very familiar with American university system, but the profile makes the subject look like a businessman, not an academic, and the article on University of Phoenix does not suggest it is a high-quality institution. I don't think Lynne is the type of subject that WP:PROF #6 was designed for? Espresso Addict (talk) 02:22, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I think that for this institution, treating him as a businessman rather than as an academic makes more sense, so we should use WP:NBIO not WP:NPROF. I didn't find any news stories with in-depth coverage of him that would count, so I don't think he passes. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:01, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral. The University of Phoenix is in the process of becoming a state-related university. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Collegemeltdown2 (talk • contribs) 19:05, 14 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This might change in the future, but as it stands, the University of Phoenix is not the kind of entity that WP:PROF#C6 is talking about; I concur that treating him as a businessman instead of an academic is more sensible. And treating him in that manner, there doesn't seem to be anything substantial to make a wiki-notability case upon. XOR'easter (talk) 17:36, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
