Earlier versions [1] were better formatted and referenced, but this article has been tagged for notability and possible WP:COI since June 2015. I can find no indication that it meets notability standards. Derek Andrews (talk) 11:00, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. That's the first time I can recall seeing an absolutely empty Google Scholar profile. Regardless, we have no evidence for notability as an academic or of any other kind. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:13, 14 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Zero notability. Why was this BLP allowed to be created? Xxanthippe (talk) 22:27, 14 August 2017 (UTC).[reply]
Delete. Agree, GS is a low-bound source and if an academic has an empty profile, it's pretty hard to claim notability. Agricola44 (talk) 22:12, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
