 * Speedy keep. Without even doing any actual research, as the nominator should have done, the first line of the article tells me she holds an endowed chair at an Ivy league university. That's a clear pass of WP:PROF. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:49, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep The article could be stronger, but the professor is frequently cited (~5K for one book I checked), widely held in libraries. I did some formatting and added full cites and ISBNs for the books that I found. LaMona (talk) 03:44, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. A h-index above twenty clearly satisfies PROF in this relatively low citation field. Multiple papers with 100+ cites are notability in any field. Cohen's most highly cited works have 4969, 1458, 290, 209, 187, 172 and 124 cites, according to GScholar, not counting cites of translations into Spanish. James500 (talk) 08:38, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep under WP:PROFESSOR, a professor at a major university holding an ednowed or named chair automatically passes notability. And be sure, please, always to remember WP:BEFOREE.M.Gregory (talk) 20:58, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment I will be happy to withdraw this nomination, and request a Speedy Keep. Notability is established; I failed to recognize it.  mea culpa; mea maxima culpa  Scr ★ pIron IV 21:05, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep as per above.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 23:05, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
