 * Speedy keep Is he notable? He certainly is with a GS h index of 26. Nominator should do WP:Before before making further nominations. An AfD nomination is not the place to ask questions, it is the place to present evidence. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:31, 2 May 2011 (UTC).
 * Keep. On the face of it the BPS Fellow would seem to pass WP:PROF, and the nominator has not articulated a reason to discount it. At first I thought the Spearman Medal would also be good for something but it seems to be more of a glorified postdoc. And as Xxanthippe says the citation record (e.g. three papers with over 100 citations each) is likely to be enough for #C1. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:48, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Citations support keep on WP:PROF #1. WoS query "Author=(Beattie G*) Refined by: Institutions=(UNIV MANCHESTER) Timespan=All Years. Databases=SCI-EXPANDED, SSCI, A&HCI" shows around 250 citations. Agricola44 (talk) 15:20, 3 May 2011 (UTC).
 * Snow Keep Clearly passes WP:PROF #1, #7. Ray  Talk 15:28, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment. Would the nominator like to withdraw to avoid wasting our time further? Xxanthippe (talk) 22:51, 4 May 2011 (UTC).
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 10:25, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
