Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alan Baker (philosopher)
I first posted about this on Drmies' talk page, but since I've been pinged I guess it's OK for me to comment here too. I am the editor who proposed this article for deletion the first time, but that was based solely on Baker's notability as shogi player and {{diff|Alan Baker (philosopher)|next|598700800 this version}} of the article. As stated above, the result of first Afd was "no consensus". The article was improved, renamed and the focus shifted to Baker's academic activities which, in my opinion, made it much better than the version I first saw. That is why I just accepted the "no consensus" keep for what it was and moved on to other things. Is Baker notable enough to satisfy any of the criterion in WP:NACADEMICS? I cannot say for sure, but since he needs to satisfy only one of the nine and No.1 seems to be his best chance, I think it depends on how broadly you wish to define "significant impact". No. 1 of #Specific criteria notes says "the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work". Being cited 127 times sounds highly cited to me, but #Citation metrics seems to imply that using Google Scholar, citation counts, h-index, etc. as determining factors may not always be as clear cut as it seems
