While he may satisfy WP:PROF criterion 1 I do not have any way of verifying that. He does not show up on Highly Cited Researchers. He does not meet any other criteria listed in WP:PROF. He does not meet WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Whether or not he can be somehow shown to meet WP:PROF-1, there are no reliable sources to verify his notability or sustain an article. Fails WP:NRV. The article lists no secondary sources that talk about him. All references are to his own books and papers. JBH (talk) 06:40, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn by nominator - With the addition of sources, particularly the UToday one. I feel the WP:NRV issue is taken care of. Also, from those articles, there is no question that he had a major effect on his field. JBH (talk) 23:17, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep Extremely highly cited according to GScholar (more than 20k citations total, with 6 works above 1000). Article needs a lot of care, though. I'd also suggest moving it to D. Randy Garrison. Axolotl Nr.733 (talk) 20:53, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
