Notability

Is this professor notable per Wikipedia:notability (academics)? PDCook (talk) 02:14, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An IP editor undid my addition of a notability tag with no explanation/edit summary. The IP editor also undid my moving of the professors website to an external links section. I reverted the reversion.

I'm not going to fight this, but I don't see how a few papers and 100 citations makes this professor notable. PDCook (talk) 13:29, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose he approaches notability with his election to the American Physical Society, but that's certainly not as selective as the National Academy of Sciences. PDCook (talk) 13:53, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
