Deletion of Eric Schechter

Comment: This notable. And Jmundo's argument on  is spot on. Once you are ''cited'' in Google Scholar by independent third-party scholars, you are  notable. It's basically automatic. This is a clear cut case on why we need a Criteria for Speedy Keep. Thanks

Comment: I just don't see how he meets .  Someone said that they thought he "might" qualify under criterion #4.  How?  Please be specific.  And frankly, the inclusion of his Erdos number, while it really is not a criterion for our decision here, does nothing to help his case.  Probably more than half of the tenured math professors in the western world have a number as low or lower.  And for pete's sake, he's not even a full professor (yet), how much of an "impact" is he likely to have made?  (I can see the examples disproving that coming now, but I still feel he unlikely to be notable

Comment: Let me note first that some of the reasons for deletion put forward by the nominator are not convincing: thus it is irrelevant to the decision regarding deleting or keeping this article that some other more deserving mathematicians at Vanderbilt do not have Wikipedia articles about them yet. However, upon closer inspection, the subject of the article does not appear to pass . I checked both WebOfScience and MathSciNet and citability results for his papers (except for one book) are low, mostly in single digits. I've looked through most of the reviews of Schechter's papers in MathSciNet (he has 21 publications listed there), and they are mostly tepid, with nothing particularly standing out and with few other reviews in MathSciNet referring to his papers. The book ''Handbook of analysis and its foundations'' actually has a rather negative review there, by James Bell Cooper. I don't see anything else in the record (such as significant awards, journal editorsjips, prestigious lectures, etc) to indicate passing  at this point
