The result was keep per WP:SNOW. In addition to the arguments for notability given in the discussion, the nomination was based on an erroneous assumption: the previous A7 deletion was for someone else, a musician, not the subject. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:28, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted previously due to A7. I still don't see what makes this person of particular importance. The Awards and Honours section isn't particularly impressive - not indicating notability. Thanks, Willbb234Talk (please {{ping}} me in replies) 21:13, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep The IEEE Founders Medal, IEEE Andrew S. Grove Award, and IEEE J. J. Ebers Award are notable and meet WP:NACADEMIC, point #2. Plummer's election as fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and member status within the National Academy of Engineering grants him notability under WP:NACADEMIC, point #3. He also fulfills point #5 as the John M. Fluke Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University and former Frederick Emmons Terman Dean of the School of Engineering.

Speedy keep Plummer is a named chair, so he fulfills the notability requirement in WP:NPROF. Mcampany (talk) 22:03, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
