 * Delete, utterly ordinary career. Also, the article was created by a banned sockpuppet, a paid editor. — Biruitorul Talk 18:47, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete - 100% agree MaskedSinger (talk) 08:29, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. In what universe is being elected a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) an "utterly ordinary career"? The notability of researchers in industry as well as academia are covered by WP:NPROF which assesses notability by their impact on their field. He meets criteria #3: The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers or Honorary Fellow of the Institute of Physics).

 * Keep. IEEE Fellow is a clear pass of WP:PROF, one of the main examples used in WP:PROF of the sort of thing that passes that criterion. G5 speedy is not in play because the article was created before anyone was indeffed (which is, by the way, not the same thing as banned). And in what universe would, say, "professional athlete did professional athlete things" be regarded as a valid deletion rationale, or "100% agree" be regarded as a substantial contribution to a deletion discussion? —David Eppstein (talk) 05:41, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. WP:Prof is passed. Xxanthippe (talk) 06:22, 18 April 2024 (UTC).
 * Keep: Clear C3 pass as an IEEE fellow. Curbon7 (talk) 22:17, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep: not only IEEE, but NASA medal, etc. would be enough even if he weren't an IEEE Fellow. Basically a speedy or snow keep.  -- Michael Scott Asato Cuthbert (talk) 00:45, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
