Talk:Lisa Jones (scientist)

Am I correct
to assume that determine her notability to stem from the million-dollar-grant? I don't find anything that makes her pass the objective NPROF criterion and her citation-profile is unimpressive. This is quite an old article; do you still believe that she deserves a page per our guidelines? How many CAREER awards are allotted each year, (which is perhaps the most relevant question)? AFAIR, it was somewhere around 300-400 in the initial years (mid-90s, I guess) and then increased by quite much; no clue about current rates. &#x222F; WBG converse 15:35, 2 May 2019 (UTC)
 * An NSF career award does not confer notability. If that is what notability is based on here, this article needs to be reviewed to see if any other indicator of notability can be found. Natureium (talk) 18:16, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * H-index of 11 is low in these fields. And, apart from the Career Grant, there's nothing else.
 * At any case, I am not risking a deletion-nomination. Every AfD is being broadcast over Twitter with flooding by semi-dormant accounts; making them travesties of a discussion. And, people who seems to be quite adored by the upper echelons of WIR have been making random accusations about some conspiracy on our part to leave male bios in order to promote misogyny. &#x222F; WBG converse 21:15, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree that this page could use some work, but I think that she is notable - for the grant, for routinely being the only black woman in her school/ department and for inventing a new technique. Unfortunately, as with most women scientists, there is little written about her beyond her faculty page. Hopefully we can leave the notability tag on and people will add content, and if they don't I will try to later in the week.
 * Unless I am missing something, the AfDs aren't being broadcast over twitter - Tuttle noticed and shared the link to her own page. Jesswade88 (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
 * , cool.
 * The number of grants allotted per year are way too many to confer notability and I disagree about being the only black woman in her college; as an indicator of notability. Essentially this idea that you deserve an article just because you are the first person of a specific background to do a very specific thing at a very specific place at a specific time is taking things to the extreme.
 * As to in vivo-FPOP, that's definitely a quite good point (FWIW, the correct citation will be [doi/10.1021/acs.analchem.5b01888 this paper], not the one that currently stands), though I have no clue as to the significance of the discovery. I note that the citation count stands at 26, which is not too convincing.

Here to add!
I'm working on this page as part of the 500 Women Wiki Scientists project. My current plans are to find a photo to add, split up the career section to focus separately on training and current work, and add a publications list. UWM.AP.Endo (talk) 06:40, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
