I think this fails GNG (see talk page also). I've removed one reference which was a self-published book, which leaves the article - but suggests this is about a mountain, not the person who measured it. Dougweller (talk) 17:58, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

 * delete &mdash; seems to be quite well known in mountain-climbing circles, but only for one piece of software, winprom, used to calculate "prominence" of peaks. works for microsoft, so not strictly an academic.  no publications i can find, so fails wp:prof, and no mentions in news apart from one ref in article, so fails gng too.  &mdash; alf.laylah.wa.laylah (talk) 20:48, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
