Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ghil'ad Zuckermann
Daniel, you are right that the fact that Zuckerman is not a full professor does not mean that he is not notable: it works the other way around: some positions (such as a named chair) implicate that someone is notable, but someone can be notable without having such a position. However, the fact that Zuckerman's work is cited by some other academics is not necessarily a sign that he (or his work) meets . Heck, my grad student's work is cited by at least 10 other scientists and she hasn't even written her thesis yet. In order to meet the "citations" criterion of , you will have to show that Zuckerman is cited above the average of what is normal for his field. Usually, this means that there will be hundreds of citations to a person's work, not a handful. For the moment, the quotes that you have uncovered -however flattring- do not entice me to change my vote
