Followup
Hi! I'm one of the admins who works most on academic related articles, & I left a detailed explanation of our practices at ]. As I explained thee, I am going to nominate this article for deletion. I am going to nominate the article for deletion, and I think it will be deleted. The most useful thing I think you could do is see that the most distinguished of the full professors in your department have articles--see [[W{"PROF. Basically, it require either national level awards or an excellent citation record. Thomas Cormier certain does. I think Gavin would qualify he has h=26, include 5 with >100 citations, which is usually good enough for us, although only 10 of those were in Physical Rev / PRL. Sergei Voloshin probably also,--his record is almost as good as Gavin's. Possibly Jogindra Wadehra. Start at the top, with Cormier.  DGG ( talk ) 16:20, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Dear David,

I think your information about this department is quite outdated. I already provided a small list of notable faculty with national awards and methods bearing their names in standard textbooks. Here is a list of people that are defined as "good enough" for you with their h indices:


 * Giovanni Bonvicini (HEP experiment) h=78, 49 papers with over 100 citations
 * David Cinabro (HEP experiment) h=82, 62 papers with over 100 citations
 * Tom Cormier (nuclear experiment) h=70, 55 papers with over 100 citations
 * Sean Gavin (nuclear theory) h=26, 6 papers with over 100 citations (he is a PECASE winner (major national award))
 * Robert Harr (HEP experiment) h=76, 49 papers with over 100 citations
 * Paul Karchin (HEP experiment) h=79, 59 papers with over 100 citations (he is a DOE Outstanding Junior Investigator award winner)
 * Alexey Petrov (HEP theory) h=31, 13 papers with over 100 citations (he is an NSF CAREER award winner (national award))
 * Claude Pruneau (nuclear experiment) h=70, 55 papers with over 100 citations
 * Joern Putschke (nuclear experiment) h=64, 48 papers with over 100 citations
 * Sergei Voloshin (nuclear experiment) h=80, 68 papers with over 100 citations

Those are people from nuclear and particle physics only. For condensed matter and atomic physics:


 * Gavin Lawes 3 papers with over 100 citations (he is an NSF CAREER award winner (national award))
 * Boris Nadgorny papers with over 100 citations (he is an NSF CAREER award winner (national award))
 * Jogindra Wadehra 4 papers with over 100 citations

Is this not a place that has distinguished academics? BTW, according to this, Cormier is not at the top. This department built significant components of STAR detector at BNL. I can continue, but can you argue otherwise?

Alex, It always breaks my heart when I misfile one of these requests. While it may be an early effort and definitely in need of work, it is in fact notable enough for inclusion. Congratulations, and thank you for challenging my original decision. (Proof that new and experienced editors really are the same here, eh?) Cheers, T.I.M(Contact) 03:24, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
