Background: The Man Who Would Be Shakespeare / Shakespeare authorship question / Oxfordian theory of Shakespeare authorship

If there is 1. an authoritative poll conducted among Shakespeare scholars (or English professors with a relevant background) or 2. an overwhelming general academic consensus that shows a majority believe Shakespeare to be Edward de Vere before 2030, this will resolve affirmatively. (If no such poll is conducted, this resolves N/A.)
