Comment The text of the article as currently written is a copyvio, but he has a GS h-index of 56 and over 13,000 citations [1]. XOR'easter (talk) 15:52, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Addendum Since a pass of WP:PROF seems possible, I cut out the copyvio text. Now it's short, but ethical. XOR'easter (talk) 23:04, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. RePEc lists him in the top 20 Swiss economists, out of some 930 total [2]. That's good enough for a pass of WP:PROF#C1 for me. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:03, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep OK, I'm calling it a pass of WP:PROF#C1. XOR'easter (talk) 02:08, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
