[edit] Sean Ho

Sean Ho (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Contested PROD; in the PROD summary, I wrote that the subject's main claims to notability seem to be that he entered college at a young age and is now a computer science professor. WP:PROF is not satisfied. Another editor added some material about ITK-SNAP, a software project he was involved with, in an attempt to demonstrate notability, but the notability of that project is also in question. Delete.

• Delete - Fails WP:PROF. A general standard of notability on Wikipedia is "more notable than the average college professor." This guy, to all appearances, is pretty much an average college professor. --Hyperbole 06:34, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
• Delete 13 to enroll at college is impressive, but not unheard of. Now, if he were the youngest person to ever attend Harvard or something... that might be noteworthy.Balloonman 06:47, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. He has a good publication record for an assistant professor, according to Google scholar. But I think someone at that level has to do something special to pass WP:PROF, not just be well on the way to a successful academic career. The early entrance to college thing is interesting but not really noteworthy enough to stand on its own. —David Eppstein 16:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
