 * Keep as meets WP:Notability (academics) criterion 3: an elected Fellow of a major scholarly society for which that is a highly selective honor. Qwfp (talk) 17:27, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 17:35, 20 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep per Qwfp. No specific reason for deletion given. Scopus shows 40 papers, highest citation counts 65 , but as part of a large team. The highest counts for sole or primary authorship are 31, 23, 17. However, there being relatively few nursing journals,and they are rarely cited by medical journals, publications in them will by necessity get lower counts than in medicine.  The only objection to the article is if we are not prepared to accept the equal status of all professions. DGG (talk) 18:07, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep per everyone, but change the title! He's a professor. Clarityfiend (talk) 03:45, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep passes WP:PROF as full professor with lots of citations. The fact that he's a nursing professor is irrelevant; he could be notable for that profession. Bearian (talk) 01:05, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
