I'll be happier once this article is run through AfD. The most one can say about this assistant professor's h-index is that it is non-zero. Article seems like a vanity page to me, with photo. Article claims his work on pay disparity has been been mentioned quite a bit in the media. Is it enough to pass WP:PROF? Abductive (reasoning) 18:36, 29 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Strong Keep - David Hekman is a notable academic because he has published four top-tier academic business articles, which fewer than 5 percent of business professors have done. He is also the lead author on a paper that has been featured in many of the most notable media outlets including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The Globe and Mail and National Public Radio. This is quite rare for his field (business management), as most full or chaired business professors have not had their work featured in these outlets.  Hekman has also had a different academic article of his featured on This American Life. diversity23 (talk) 19:19, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
