 * Delete. Does not appear to pass WP:PROF, and even if this were more borderline the negative content and WP:BLP would push me towards delete — he's a plagiarist, but not a notable plagiarist, and we need to include the plagiarism if we keep the article but better just not to have an article. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:50, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Aside from the bad writing and/or self-promotional tone ("post-Ph.D." - a plain postdoc presumably), which also appear to have played a role in the plagiarism episode, there is not enough there. Does not pass any criterion WP:PROF, and the sources state that he has quit academia, so that won't build enough any time soon. Got the usual minor notice in his new homeland following Aliyah, but does not seem to pass WP:GNG altogether. The plagiarism episode is plain, and since he admitted and accepted the retractions that should be the end of that story.Truth or consequences-2 (talk) 09:33, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
