Recreated after speedy deletion, this incarnation mentions a prize so is possibly not a speedy candidate. Still no indication that WP:BIO is met. Ros0709 (talk) 22:00, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. No clear assertion of notability and no independent sources. —C.Fred (talk) 22:07, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete quickly. Plenty of reason above. Drmies (talk) 22:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment. This web page calls the CRM-SSC prize one "of the eight major national prizes in the mathematical sciences" in Canada. That may be enough to pass WP:PROF #2, I'm not sure, despite it being for a relatively junior researcher. It's more than a student award, anyway. But in some other AfD's it's been questioned whether the Aisenstadt prize, another of those eight and also for a more junior researcher, is enough to satisfy the criterion. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:45, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. I am not even sure that this article is not a hoax. MathSciNet does not list any papers authored by the subject, and similarly there is nothing in GoogleScholar. We can debate the level of prestige of CRMS-SSC prize some other time, but the claim to have won that prize does not check out: the official webpage with the list of the prize's recepients does not contain the subject's name. Delete as failing both WP:V and WP:PROF. Nsk92 (talk) 02:03, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, delete. That was the only reason I was holding out on giving an opinion. I suppose there's an outside chance Veilleux received the prize before the 1999 date of the first listed recipient, but there's nothing in Google either. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:22, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
