Dutch professor without any prizes or rewards, being that important that even the Dutch Wikipedia has no article about him. With 23k Google hits of doubtable notability The Banner talk 16:35, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Clear keep by WP:Prof at least. Nominator is advised to carry put WP:Before before making further AfD nominations. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:35, 20 May 2014 (UTC).
 * You are right, I should have looked better at this article. Then I would have seen that it was a BLP without sources and had prodded it... The Banner talk 23:47, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Without sources? I can find 5375 sources with one click. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:06, 21 May 2014 (UTC).
 * Until someone added one, there were none in the article... And I don't assume that the sources are there, I want to see them. BTW, a prod for no sources was there before, but was removed. The Banner talk 00:25, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Please see WP:BEFORE. AfD is not for cleanup, and lack of sources when they exist elsewhere is a cleanup problem. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:08, 21 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Comment. Nominators who make mistaken AfD nominations often sometimes have the grace to withdraw them to save trouble for other editors. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:57, 21 May 2014 (UTC).
 * Keep. His named professorship is (from the sources) aimed at younger faculty, so may not be enough by itself to count for WP:PROF. But I think that putting it together with the citation record makes the case clear. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:25, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
