 * Delete. This looks like the right criteria should be either PROF or AUTHOR, but I'm not seeing notability through either. Citation counts for people with the same name (who may or may not be the same person) are not enough to convince for WP:PROF, and I can find no reviews for anything listed as a "book" in the article (Digital Corporate Citizenship appears to be his dissertation, I can find no evidence that it was actually published as a book by IU Press, I can find no convincing evidence that The Second Wireless Revolution exists as a book at all, and while Getting Grants does appear to exist I can't find any reviews of it). —David Eppstein (talk) 18:23, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Incidentally, we do have an article Meaningful Broadband about some of his work. If it were notable we could consider a redirect to it, but I think it should probably be deleted as well. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:25, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Meaningful Broadband. I think there's a good argument to be made that Meaningful Broadband is the "body of work" we should be judging him on, which is to say that if it's notable, he is too (though I do think we should redirect this article to that one if so, given the volume of unsourced content). I suspect it is notable, since it's been deployed in at least two countries, but I agree that the references currently in that article don't show it. -- asilvering (talk) 18:43, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete: Was hoping to find book reviews to satisfy AUHTOR, I can only find where to buy them. I don't see notability. Oaktree b (talk) 20:47, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
