Deletion of Joseph Ó Ruanaidh

Comment: Before writing this entry, I actually read the list of requirements for entry into Wikipedia where |it says, for example, (paraphrased) that the average college professor would not qualify. Evidence must be available that the work of the researcher is highly cited, that he may have written a book read by more than 5000 people (I remember that one), be an invited speaker at conferences etc. etc. I have done all this in spades. It was hard work getting to that level (especially when one had to start at the bottom). Please consider the evidence and the Wikipedia:Notability_%28academics%29|Wiki-guidelines carefully before voting
