Comment: as the profile in ''The Star'' satisfies the basic criteria of : he "has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject." It goes on to say "If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be needed to prove notability", but here the depth of coverage ''is'' substantial. His citation count doesn't look bad either: top articles cited 90 and 79 times according to http://scholar.google.co.uk/scholar?hl=en&q=%22wk+yeap%22 Google Scholar, but this is not my field so i'm unsure of typical citation patterns

Comment: I concur with Xxanthippe that for someone in AI with a Ph.D. as long ago as 1984, his citation numbers are not stellar and not enough to pass . To get a better sense of calibration I tried looking up the first five people in :Category:Artificial intelligence researchers; four of them are clearly more well-cited than Yeap, and the fifth (Victor Allis) has a very similar citation record to Yeap's but left academia immediately after grad school — the much longer period Yeap has had to make an impact implies to me that he should have made a much bigger splash, and he hasn't. The article about Yeap in ''The Star'' goes some way towards a pass of , bypassing , but it's only one source; we need more than one to achieve notability that way, and I couldn't find others

Comment: The "books" referred to above consist mostly of short articles or are published by the subject's institution. They have garnered few, if any, cites. A search of WoS for "Yeap WK" gives top cites of 44, 29, 6, 2, 1..... with h index = 3. This is way below what is needed for the high standards of rof#1 where h indices of 10-15 are borderline. The institution at which he holds a Directorship is very far from major and will not satisfy rof#6. My recommendation to delete is unchanged
