 * Snow keep and suggest that the nominator re-read WP:PROF. The subject's paper "Law and finance" has over 12000 citations in Google scholar, far higher than our usual standards for WP:PROF. Nine of his publications have over 1000 citations, again far more than we usually consider a passing level. And as a named professor at an Ivy league school he also passes #C5. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:02, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Snow keep. This nomination is either vandalism or incompetence. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:17, 17 May 2013 (UTC).
