  • Keep. Has held named professorship since 1991. Holds couple of honorary PhDs. Medline finds 227 papers for "MA Hardy" + transplantation; several are in highly prestigious journals eg N Engl J Med, Science and many others are in well-respected subject-specific journals eg Transplantation. Google Scholar results are hard to interpret due to the common nature of his name, but he has one paper with 180 citations, another with 93 and several with over 50. He has co-edited three books. Meets my definition of WP:PROF. Espresso Addict (talk) 02:49, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. And clearly meets all the criteria of Wikipedia's definition of WP:PROF, even though only one is required. Phil Bridger (talk) 08:19, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Honorary degrees, besides what the other people have. This sort of nom is either based on carelessness or a misreading of WP:COI. DGG (talk) 00:40, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
