A self-congratulatory bio (no mention of actual publications, substantive contributions to the field etc). Being a professor at 32 is very common as many Dutch universities employ American academic titles. Possibly this academic did become a "full professor" (equivalent to an English ranked Professor) at an early; this would be quite rare, and, in which case, a Wiki entry seems appropriate.

that's exactly what is meant: the Dutch title 'professor' is only exclusively used for full professors; in the Netherlands, assistent professors and associate professors are called 'universitair (hoofd)docent' i.e. something like 'academic teacher'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.81.188.199 (talk) 12:41, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Upon closer inspection, it seems that this person is relatively minor, and therefore does not even justify having a Wikipedia page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.213.35.80 (talk) 08:01, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
