 * As reviewing administrator, I think it indicates at least some importance, so not a speedy. But add material about his career, and about the no of citations to his papers--get this from Scopus or Web of Science, if possible. Be ready for the argument that he was a junior researcher at the time of the main work., not the person primarily responsible. It would therefore help to have 3rd party independent reliable published sources, print or online (but not blogs or press releases), talking about him and his role.   I'd advise you to add this very quickly, before it gets nominated for regular deletion.DGG (talk) 19:13, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
