This article has been through PROD, but never AFD. There is very limited evidence of notability here, and the article has been tagged with notability concerns for 5 years. According to Scopus, his h-index is 26, which is decent for a youngish professor at a major research university, but definitely does not establish notability by WP:PROF. According to this Wiki article, one of the claims that supposedly establishes his notability is that he was on a Science paper (but he was in fact only third author of four), and that he has won a handful of minor, non-notable awards. This page looks like a standard academic CV to me, so I don't think he meets WP:PROF. Bueller 007 (talk) 01:58, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - don't think he meets WP:PROF either. MaskedSinger (talk) 06:28, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep. Passes WP:Prof on citations. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:13, 9 July 2019 (UTC).
 * Comment - Regarding the author order in academic papers: for senior authors what matters is if they are corresponding authors (have an asterisk after their name in the author list). Frequently, names of group leaders are near the end of author lists but are followed by an asterisk. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.227.221.26 (talk) 14:04, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
 * There is no evidence for that. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:34, 10 July 2019 (UTC).

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Regardless, having one Science paper doesn't make you a notable scientist. They publish dozens of papers per week. Bueller 007 (talk) 19:13, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep. I think four papers with 100 citations each in Google scholar should be enough for WP:PROF, and we have enough other material on him to make an article. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:04, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
