Fails WP:GNG. How was this written in the good ol' days? Was it better or unsourced? Sarrail (talk) 05:20, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

- Keep and fix. Nomination fails to even consider the appropriate notability criteria (WP:PROF and WP:AUTHOR). The article was lobotomized last July by User:SovalValtos without any attempt to improve it instead, after several earlier attempts to source it were reverted, but a single click on his faculty profile from the external links shows him to be Distinguished University Professor at Claremont Graduate University (WP:PROF#C5), former president of the American Evaluation Association (maybe #C6), and winner of multiple awards and fellowships some of which might contribute to #C2 or #C3. His Google Scholar profile shows heavy citations, enough for #C1 even in a high-citation field. And the pre-lobotomized version lists many book publications, which are not enough for notability in themselves, but could lead to WP:AUTHOR notability if there are multiple published reviews of them; I found doi:10.1080/00224545.2012.631450, doi:10.1002/pfi.21240, doi:10.1002/acp.1322, doi:10.1002/acp.1360, and doi:10.1177/1098214008314981 on a quick search, not quite enough by themselves (because most of these are for edited volumes) but a good start. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:05, 15 December 2022 (UTC)
