This appears to be a collection of article BY the person in question not ABOUT the person in question. Also appears to be a significant COI. I see only two passing mentions on Google news about this person. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:16, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Comment - his research is both interesting and current (I saw a short documentary just last night that commented on the fact that many people can't hear differences in minor versus major chords). However, this article is about the subject of his research, and there's little about him. That would earn a redirect at best. There are some poetential sources out there.

 * Delete. As Xxan already said, citations too low in a high-citation area to convince me of a pass of WP:PROF, and not enough independent press coverage of him to convince me of a pass of WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:38, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
