Deletion of David W. Allan

Comment: Thanks and kudos to {{u|Johnpacklambert|John Pack Lambert}} for a careful and balanced nomination. I'm not entirely sure about this either, but when I {{diff|David W. Allan|prev|653950733|removed the copyvio}} (i.e., essentially the whole article/eulogy written by his son) in 2015, I was persuaded by the cites and the IEEE award that he passed the bar and so did not request deletion as G12. It may be worth noting that our page on the Rabi Award was written by the same |COI editor. {{u|Claude J}}, is this a significant or notable award, can you tell us? If not, perhaps that page should be nominated too

Comment: Have found numerous awards as well as peer-reviewed periodicals about or by the subject. Clearly passes . Granted, the article needs work, but a search of news and Google Scholar turns up several reliable sources

Comment: per comments and sources from {{u|Claude J}} (thank you!). Meanwhile, it'd be helpful if people would stop adding poorly-sourced or self-referenced content to the page – it's completely useless here, as we require |independent reliable sources for our content. Thanks
