Borderline, but I don't see that she passes WP:PROF or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 15:54, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment Not sure if she meets wp:prof 5.The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon. "LeBlanc is Professor Emeritus of the University of Kansas Departments of Applied Behavioral Science and Special Education" meet this? Also won an "Outstanding Contribution Award for International Development by the Association for Behavior Analysis" which meets wp:prof "The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level"?User:Davidstewartharvey
 * "Professor emeritus" just means she's retired; it does not count for #C5. As for the award, with no Wikipedia article about the award and nothing about her winning it on the web site abainternational.org, it's difficult to say, but if it's anything like the one described at then definitely not: that's a small grant, not a recognition of distinguished scholarship. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:48, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

 * CommentProfessor Emiterus might be a title given to someone who is retired, but at most uni's this is not automatically bestowed, it is voted on by the academia at the uni. Secondly, the award does exist as another bestowed with the award is Dr. Joe morrow as per Behavior Analysis and Learning: A Biobehavioral Approach, Sixth Edition By W. David Pierce, Carl D. Chesney This award is the later named version which started in 96. It is not a grant award, and is voted on by a select group of members. In addition found that on her employers website it says she the creator of the Functional - National Curriculum, which her employer is credited to in Health Care for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities across the Lifespan South America p. 517-528 A Service Example from Lima, Peru on research gate.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment Professor Emeritus doesn't meet WP:NPROF C5.  But her top-cited publications seem to have 190, 159, 135, 110; she's last author on 3 of them.  I'm a little unsure of the conventions in her field, and whether that's sufficient for WP:NPROF C1, but it's plausible.  The NYTimes piece cited in the article also covers her nontrivially.

 * Keep. The citation record would be enough for a weak keep for me, based on WP:PROF, but the media coverage and Peruvian honorary distinguished professorships tip it higher than that. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:04, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Weak keep, belatedly, per WP:NPROF C1 and my earlier comment. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 07:31, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep based on WP:PROF Lightburst (talk) 16:55, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
