 * Keep. Weak delete. Google Scholar gives him the h-index of 33. That's pretty good but not spectacular for a high citation field he works in. I could not find anything else. The refs in the article mostly lead to dead links at his home institution. There is also an unverified claim of having received "several awards", also sourced to a dead link. I did some google searching but could not locate either personal webpage or an institutional profile page for him. Unless there is more, I don't quite see this as passing WP:PROF.

 * After further digging, I found info about three awards, that look fairly significant, which I added to the article, with refs. A subpage for one of these awards includes a fairly detailed bio article about the subject.. Together with GScholar citations, enough here to pass WP:PROF. Nsk92 (talk) 11:36, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep. Passes WP:Prof on basis of GS citations. Xxanthippe (talk) 07:20, 14 August 2019 (UTC).

 * Keep. As the article now stands, after Nsk92's additions, I am not an expert reader of this but it appears as though he passes WP:NACADEMIC in terms of: "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline" given that "El Mundo has described him as "one of the leading scientists in materials research in the country""; and "The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level" because he has "received the Spanish Association of Scientists Plaque of Honor". -Lopifalko (talk) 16:51, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Apparently there have been improvements made to the article. WP:NACADEMIC was referenced as the problem but I currently see it as passing after reading the article. The "Spanish Association of Scientists Plaque of Honor" achievement is important and prestigious enough that an article here is clearly warranted. Utopes (talk) 21:38, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
