After reading this article. I don't see anything that makes this person notable. I doubt a college degree merits notibility. VegasCasinoKid (talk) 19:03, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * did you overlook basically every sentence in the whole article except the one in the "Education" section? The first sentence of the whole article says she's a college dean, the section about her career says she's editor-in-chief of one of the NSF's libraries, and there's a whole Awards section detailing her several from ACS, and a fellow of both AAAS and IUPAC? Keep per all that. DMacks (talk) 19:25, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * , I did read it yes, but the name doesn't ring a bell with most people. Should we write an article about every college professor that wins an award? VegasCasinoKid (talk) 02:06, 21 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep per DMacks; she's a college dean, AAAS Fellow, and former ACS division chair. Antony–22 (talk⁄contribs) 19:49, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. At best, nominator has misread the article. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by administrators since 2006.  (talk) 22:23, 20 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep I have no idea what the nominator was thinking but "the name doesn't ring a bell with most people" is one of the dumbest arguments I've seen for why an article should be deleted. Fame=/=notability.&#42;Treker (talk) 07:38, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Easily satisfies WP:ACADEMIC. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:24, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Satisfies WP:ACADEMIC. That said, the lead isn't very strong, so I'm going to improve it. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 17:13, 21 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep. She may or may not pass WP:PROF (reasonably well-cited pubs in Google scholar ) but the much more clearcut case is WP:PROF (fellow of multiple societies for which this is a highly selective honor). —David Eppstein (talk) 03:06, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep A GS h-index of 39 is a super-pass of WP:Prof. Nominator may like to withdraw. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:11, 22 March 2016 (UTC).
 * Speedy keep. Per David Eppstein and Xxanthippe. Astro4686 (talk) 19:40, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as this all seems clear enough proof of importance. Blythwood (talk) 23:32, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
