 * Speedy keep per WP:SKCRIT #1. Nomination provides no WP:DELREASON. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 00:43, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. He appears to mostly publish as "D. E. Winget"; searching Google Scholar for that author name finds citation counts 512, 404, 357, 327, ..., easily good enough for WP:PROF on top of the pass of #C5 already clear from the as-nominated article. I don't think the Trumpler Award  contributes much more towards notability but it should also be mentioned in the article. Also, WP:DINC. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:48, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Per the comments above, clearly satisfies WP:PROF and WP:PROF. I have expanded the article a bit, with the refs to a couple of newsarticles about his work and also the info about his 1987 Newton Lacy Pierce Prize in Astronomy. The article can certainly be expanded further. I suggest that the nominator consider withdrawing this nomination to save everybody some time. Nsk92 (talk) 02:13, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep, as passing multiple PROF criteria (C1 due to citations, C5 due to named chair).-- Eostrix  (&#x1F989; hoot hoot&#x1F989;) 13:37, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Almost no information is better than no information. –&#8239;Joe (talk) 14:43, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep since he clearly meets Academic notability #5. For what it is worth though do we distinguish named professorships from named chairs? A few weeks ago I noticed that the J. Reuben Clark Law School has both.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:54, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets several criteria for NPROF. JoelleJay (talk) 16:00, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
