Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jens Franzen
May have been created to hammer on a |point, but believing that Franzen and Cédric d'Udekem d'Acoz fall into the same notability bracket rather demonstrates that the article creator lacks the discernment to assess notability as per . Franzen isn't wildly notable, but he does meet our criteria. He has 18 years as department head at the Senckenberg Institute (we need a better article on that - :de:Senckenberg Forschungsinstitut has all the goods). The :de:Friedrich-von-Alberti-Preis|Friedrich-von-Alberti-Preis may not be the Fields Medal, but it is a prestigious 10k Euro award. Among described species, ''Darwinius'' is a big deal in terms of primate systematics that got a lot of mainstream coverage (note the difference to "he described some species"). He has six taxa named in his honor (note the difference to "he named them himself"). This is an accomplished scientist with a lifelong body of work that makes him notable. - Sourcing could be better, but since this is a direct adaptation of the German article, inline cites are at a premium as usual
