This article fails to meet the requirements of WP:PROF for notability. Checking Google Scholar, Järvstråt has published a few articles but these have a record of being very poorly cited by others in the field. I note he is shown as "head of the Division of Production Engineering" at University West in Trollhättan, however as this institute does not have the authority to award doctoral degrees, this is not equivalent to "a major highest-level elected or appointed academic post" as intended in the WP:PROF definition. It may be argued that he is marginal for PROF but meets general notability and I have found a few Google News references but these are very few considering how newsworthy moon colonization topics are in the the general press.

 * Delete. GS cites tiny. Does not appear to meet WP:Prof in any respect. Xxanthippe (talk) 04:23, 8 January 2010 (UTC).
 * Delete. Not near notable through conventional academic activities, only the "moon-related" activities would have any chance of "saving" him, and that seems not to have far enough for that. The addition of this article by was most likely a WP:COI addition, with that user possibly being his wife Marianne Rugård Järvstråt, who was added at the same time together with her publishing company Bombadil Publishing.
