The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep. While weighting whether the subject meets WP:NPROF, some delete !votes are given less weight since WP:NEXIST, and WP:NPROF does not require secondary sources. There is rough consensus that the subject meets WP:NPROF#C1. (non-admin closure) ~ Aseleste (t, e | c, l) 09:52, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The only sources in the article are primary sources and I think this fails WP:Notability (academics), Noah!💬 19:10, 9 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • speedy keep NoahDavid771 can you explain how he fails WP:NPROF? He is in a low citation field but has 6 papers with over 100 citations, that seems highly notable. On top of that he received multiple awards that seem notable and is a prize-winning documentary movie producer/writer. Regarding the lack of independent sources, this is an issue but not a problem for WP:NPROF, please see there. --hroest 04:32, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The article needs cleanup but WP:DINC. Besides WP:PROF#C1 as above, I found and added to the article enough published reviews of his authored books (although many are edited rather than authored) to convince me of a pass of WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:34, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As per discussed above article needs cleanup. He is surely in low citiation field but he has over 100 citiations as also mentioned by Hanees! In my opinion he meets WP:PROF#C1. Grailcombs (talk) 14:25, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
