Appears very non-notable. Only 2 references, one of them being a book he wrote. Jcmcc450 (talk) 21:43, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Phillip Nelson (with two L's in Phillip) has written at least two hugely successful works, the "Information and consumer behavior" one already mentioned (5658 citations on Google scholar), and "Advertising as information" (3338 citations on Google scholar), enough both to pass WP:PROF#C1 and to avoid WP:BIO1E. Apparently he was Bartle Professor of Economics at SUNY Binghamton [1] so he also passes #C5. The article needs to be moved to a correctly spelled title. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:53, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Ahh, that makes much more sense now. Now that I am looking up "Phillip Nelson", I do see notability. Jcmcc450 (talk) 15:16, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
