Not every university professor deserves an article in the encyclopedia. Articles at Wikipedia have to be about a [[WP:N|notable topic]] in order to be included. As a university professor, this article would fall under the criteria of [[WP:NPROF]], which lists [[WP:NACADEMIC|nine criteria]] for inclusion.

*{{u|LLMHoopes}} - are you interested in further improving the page? Also, {{u|Mathglot}} - Lee has won an award from the [[National Academy of Sciences]], which I think is supposed to be one of the more highly selective and prestigious of the groups out there, of which she's also a member, so she would probably pass on criteria #3 and probably #2. I'll also ping {{u|Natureium}}, as they created the article and may be able to give more insight. LLMHoopes, can you also attest to this?

Reorganizing and copyediting

I'm a new Fellow in General Subjects and this week I am supposed to do minor edits on articles I'm considering for more work.  I have reorganized this article. I would like to add an Infobox and a photograph if I can find one with the right qualifications for Wikipedia use.  Please let me know if you have issues with these copyedits or plans.

Trolling frequent

This article is on my watch list and recently it has been trolled twice, perhaps more. I am new and don't know how best to prevent this attack.LLMHoopes (talk) 14:09, 16 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

Not every university professor deserves an article in the encyclopedia. Articles at Wikipedia have to be about a notable topic in order to be included. As a university professor, this article would fall under the criteria of WP:NPROF, which lists nine criteria for inclusion. I don't see that this article meets any of the nine conditions, and if that turns out to be the case, this article should be nominated for deletion. Adding LLMHoopes and User:Shalor (Wiki Ed).
