Antonios Liapis

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not appear notable as an academic or a writer or any other way. More like a resume. No independant coverage noted. Legacypac (talk) 12:38, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep Article may be CV but can be copyedited. G Scholar report a citation count of 873 and an H-index of 17, which is respectable, and marks him out as real researcher, assuming its the same guy at Institute of Digital Games, University of Malta. Hope that helps. I suspect that some academics don't satisfy WP:SIGCOV, as they're working all the time. scope_creep (talk) 12:58, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Author just moved it to Draft:Antonios Liapis which is a no no during an AfD. Legacypac (talk) 13:03, 2 February 2018 (UTC)


 * @Legacypac Sorry was based on discussion with The Mighty Glen on talk page.Digitalgames (talk) 13:17, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, Digitalgames beat me to it - this was a good faith move by the article creator, which I've reverted. The Mighty Glen (talk) 13:22, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment Surely if the COPYVIO is removed, article would be passable?  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:59, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * "CV" here means "curriculum vitae", not WP:CV. --Xover (talk) 16:56, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * My apologies. I assumed it was a copy violation of someone's posted CV. My mistake. Carry on  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 18:18, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete, reluctantly. Article fails both WP:GNG and WP:ACADEMIC. --Xover (talk) 16:56, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as too soon. He completed his PhD degree in 2014 and hasn't had time to build up the publishing records that his fellow researchers Georgios N. Yannakakis (his thesis advisor) and Julian Togelius have. StarryGrandma (talk) 04:50, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment He is cited 874 times. Is that not enough to pass WP:GNG? scope_creep (talk) 13:12, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Just so I understand, the number of times he is cited is an indicator of how important his work is but when I click on the citations almost all are "circular" citations by one or more of the coauthors of his published works. Also from what I can see most if not all were written with his professors. How can one weed out the self citations and know if he is not just piggybacking on the notability of his professors? None of the sources cited are in depth coverage so he would seem to fail GNG. Dom from Paris (talk) 16:14, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
