Dougal McNeill

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Does not appear to meet the requirements of WP:PROF with a h-index of 4 (per Google Scholar) and no fellowships of journal editorships. Mentions in Stuff, etc. do not appear to be sufficient to satisfy WP:BIO. Gusfriend (talk) 11:28, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator as it now meets WP:NAUTHOR thanks to the work of David Eppstein. Gusfriend (talk) 12:28, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators and New Zealand. Gusfriend (talk) 11:28, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete: Far WP:TOOSOON. No indication WP:NPROF or WP:GNG is passed. Curbon7 (talk) 12:57, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Striking per below. Curbon7 (talk) 12:16, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Senior lecturer at a good New Zealand university (comparable to somewhere between associate and full professor for US academic ranks) is not a particularly TOOSOON position in academia. He appears to be working in a book field rather than a journal field, explaining the dearth of journal citations to his work. I found seven reviews of three of his books, and added them to the article; I think it's enough for WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:10, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
