[edit] Ekmel Ozbay

Ekmel Ozbay (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Only outside link is this person's curriculum vitae. He has won some awards and might be notable enough, but i'm not sure. Yamanbaiia 18:29, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

• Weak keep on notability alone. Borderline case. That the article is an obvious COI does not justify deletion: it only hinders (and, in this case, totally prevents) the article's promotion on the quality scale (that is Good Articles, Featured Articles). --Blanchardb-Me^MyEars_MyMouth-timed 22:29, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Google Scholar shows that he has had plenty of well-cited publications to make him notable by WP:PROF. Phil Bridger 15:04, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. —Phil Bridger 15:04, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep: plenty publications, an invited review in Science, director of a large research institute, well-cited. I have cleaned the article a bit, but it needs some more work and sourcing. --Crusio 16:00, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
• Keep per Phil Bridger and Crusio. Tim Ross·^talk 17:34, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
• Comment - I fleshed out & verified one of the more major award pages that he's won; that's for real. --Lquilter 18:22, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
