Stub page about a professor, that has existed in its present two-sentence form since Oct 2003. Nothing mentioned to establish notability. SolidPlaid 07:45, 12 September 2007 (UTC) *Delete as per nom. --Crusio 09:03, 13 September 2007 (UTC) Keep as per David Eppstein. --Crusio 18:09, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Wow, now it has lots of citations. SolidPlaid 01:11, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions.   —David Eppstein 02:32, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. The holder of a named chair would seem in general to be notable; Google Scholar finds several papers with high citation counts, eg one at 314, four others >100 and lots more >50; he has also cowritten a book Loops, Knots, Gauge Theories and Quantum Gravity, published by CUP, for which Google Scholar finds several reviews. The Amazon page for the book  quotes Hugo A. Morales in Mathematical Reviews as saying 'the authors...are pioneers and leaders in the field'. Meets with my understanding of WP:PROF. Willing to change my mind as I'm not familiar with the Louisiana State University and this is far from my area. Espresso Addict 13:33, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. I've added some awards and honors and sourcing to the article. —David Eppstein 17:20, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment -- can we close this now? David Eppstein's magnificent expansion of the article puts the subject's notability in no doubt. Espresso Addict 01:29, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Please close - I'm the nominator. SolidPlaid 01:49, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
