No notability. Only primary sources used in article. Fails WP:GNG. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 03:16, 6 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete - Seems to be a GNG fail. Highly doubtful that this passes the SCHOLAR special notability guideline either but I leave that question for others. Carrite (talk) 02:04, 7 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. With a h-index of 4 (filtering out the other Zachary Nelsons who are in different fields) he fails WP:PROF too. -- 120.17.62.90 (talk) 21:46, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. Being an independent scholar instead of a professor somewhere (as he seems to be, judging from the affiliations on his papers) doesn't automatically mean failing WP:PROF. But with a low h-index and no books, what evidence do we have for scholarly impact? —David Eppstein (talk) 22:23, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
