:Articles for deletion/Arthur Rubin (6th nomination) - Knowledge (XXG)

1656:, which was closed as speedy keep after 3 hours with the only votes being 1xdelete and 1xspeedy keep as well as the nomination. I suggest that this 6th AfD be assessed objectively on the basis the available evidence, just as with any other AfD of a BLP, and that the alleged motives of the nominator and anybody else be discounted. I add that, to the best of my recollection, I have had no disputatious encounters with the subject of the BLP in his capacity as an editor of Knowledge (XXG). I ask that the AfD be allowed to run its full term and be closed by an administrator who has had no previous connection with the Rubin story and is not one of the usual suspects. Who are the 1057:
people don't always cite the original work on it and that its citation count underestimates its influence) and is one of (depending on how you count) the five or ten most frequently cited of Paul Erdős's papers. So it's not merely "he has a paper with Erdős", but "he has a paper that, even among papers with Erdős, is famous". And given the well known collaboration patterns of Erdős, I think we can safely assume that, although Erdős surely provided some of the insights in the paper, a lot of the work of coming up with the problem to work on and making it a paper came from its other authors.
1043:. I'm highly skeptical of the good faith of this nomination; the reason for the many past speedy closures is that people with Knowledge (XXG) editing disputes with Rubin keep nominating this article for deletion as a way to retaliate. And the past Arbcom case shows both that Rubin has enemies who will persistently snipe at him, and that Rubin has reacted badly enough to that sniping to encourage his enemies to continue with their attacks. Regardless, let's look at the merits of the case. 1611: 545:
that aside, as work here is very unlikely to earn notability (if we exclude spending one's life deleting the phrase "is comprised of"). What does that leave? There's one co-authored paper (with Erdős) that has been cited 900 times; and a series of student prizes. He's a notable Wikipedian, but that's not the same as a notable mathematician. As for the politics and the engineering, they are worthy but not notable. I remain to be convinced.

researcher he was collaborating with, but it would just be speculation and the mere fact he was collaborating with Erdos at that level says something. The paper does have an extremely large number of citations (over 900 according to Google Scholar), and he is named as a prominent author on it, which is evidence of his impact on the field. Sure, most student awards don't qualify, but we are not talking about a normal student award, indeed

indexing such things. However, a cited reference search for the title of the paper ("Choosability in graphs") does give a list of citations for that paper, about 440 in total. Most are in discrete math publications. The second most cited article in MathSciNet, with 4 citations there ("Stability index of invariant subspaces of matrices"), has 7 citations produced by a cited reference search in the WebOfScience.

third- grade schoolroom every afternoon to take a calculus course at Michigan State University, where he got the highest grades in the class. By the time he was 14, he was enrolled in advanced mathematics at Purdue University. Thus, at 15, Arthur found himself in the curious position of applying for college— but with a full graduate courseload of mathematics ..." That seems substantial enough for me. —
1620: 2124:- Most of the challenges of this piece at AfD were Speedy Keeps based on bad faith nominations. There has been no real discussion of the merits of the piece itself for nearly a decade. Notability seems scant, but this is a job for the people well versed in the SNG for mathematicians; I have no opinion other than the fact that a real debate needs to be had. 1227:
article as I cannot access it. If you or anyone else can read it in full, can you please provide a quotation so that the depth of coverage can be assessed? The New Scientist source isn't any help, because as you point out, it is only a couple of sentences. The title of the third source speaks volumes
2094:
the article focuses on two facts about Rubin: his Putnam award record, and his paper with Erdos. There's very little else in the article; he's apparently a financial analyst as well as an aerospace engineer professionally, and of course a contributor at this site. There's a plausible argument that

that you did not provide sufficient information for me to assess the coverage. Now we are getting somewhere though - is that all the article or is there more? Or are you only seeing the snippet? Searching for that text still doesn't bring up a full text, but at least I now have enough information to
544:
Well, let's take this calmly (please). Speedy keeps have 5 times failed to resolve the discussion, so one might guess there was something to discuss, and I do think we should have this open for a full week this time. We inherently respect Arthur Rubin for his work here on Knowledge (XXG): let us set
1222:
Thank you for bringing more sources to the discussion, however let's please stay focussed on them, rather than questioning the motives of anyone involved in the discussion. Regarding GNG though, I still do not see that any of the new sources provide the substantial coverage we require. I echo Nsk92
1003:
OK, if I understand the toings and froings, we are agreed that this fails WP:PROF, but there's a consensus that WP:GNG is passed by a) sharing a famous paper and b) being probably the only person to get a Putnam fellowship 4 times over. That at least sounds like a reasonable claim to go along with,

List coloring was introduced independently by Vizing and by E-R-T. At that time, Vizing was not well known within the Soviet Union and the Soviet mathematical literature was not always well-distributed to the rest of the world, so independent rediscovery was more likely (but it still happens often
559:
I concur. I have long had doubts about the notability of him and personally, I think we should be extra strict when dealing with the notability of Wikipedians. It's pretty obvious that if Arthur weren't an editor, then it's very unlikely this would ever have existed, and if the maths prize sources

this has been AfD'd five times, speedy kept the last three, and based on the state of the article, the nominator brings up no new information and in any case we typically don't delete articles for being unsourced, we delete them for being unnotable (or unable for sources to be found.) The subject
1166:
will show you the facts: Vizing was a well known mathematician in Soviet Union whose papers were even published by Springer. "Soviet mathematical literature was not always well-distributed to the rest of the world" makes no sense to me. Erdos was affiliated with Hungarian Academy of Sciences that

asks for coverage that addresses the subject "directly and in detail". The coverage here consists mostly of brief mentions. The 1974 LA Times article definitely provides specific and detailed coverage. I can't view the 1974 Newsweek article you linked, so I am not sure how much is there. But even

the problem is with our standards rather than with the article. We should note that it's not just any paper; it's one that introduced a central topic on graph theory (Google scholar lists over 2500 papers that match the phrase "list coloring", so I think the concept has become so commonplace that

Some, but not all (also for math citations that occurred prior to 2000 MathSciNet coverage is fairly spotty). A WebOfScience search gives more complete results. The paper with Erdos is not indexed there because it was published in a conference proceedings back in 1980, well before WoS started
819:
I'm not sure why you've wrapped "multiple reliable sources" in quotation marks, because that makes it look like the phrase is found in one of the pages you're referencing, and it isn't. Sure, we can speculate about whether the impact of that paper is down to Rubin or the highly distinguished
1068:, but that means merely that we should consider different notability guidelines, not that he cannot be notable for them.) It's not easy to search publications from the 1970s, but as well as the article about him in the LA Times we have a Newsweek story that covers him in some depth 1767:
Why Speedy? What's the hurry? There are only four days to go and results will be more accepted if conventions are observed (as they were not in the last AfD). Better to discuss the issue here rather than in a long-drawn-out DRV as occurred after the irregularly closed 5th AfD.

What is the full reference to the Newsweek article, year edition, page? I can't get access to it there.The extract given by Eppstein sounds like the sort of credulous GeeWizary that has recently been rejected as a reliable source in the case of another mathematical prodigy
1684:. There is one highly cited paper (~ 900 cites) written with a distinguished mathematician and another coauthor. The few other papers published have had coauthors and few citations, so there is little evidence of independent achievement. The student awards do not satisfy 792:
That seems very doubtful here; co-authoring one paper alongside someone famous does not demonstrate that the impact was due to AR (it was far more likely the famous co-author); and no independent reliable sources have been provided to demonstrate it, so we doubt any such

and a note to the nominator for wasting our time. This isn't a nomination that has any reasonable basis for deletion and the issues it does raise have been raised and rejected five times before.
871:. There is one highly cited paper, with several co-authors, including a very famous mathematician (Erdos). I don't think there is a case for academic notability here. One could argue for passing 328:

271:(900 times) is the "Choosability in Graphs". This paper is about a graph coloring method already invented and developed by Soviet mathematicians (Vizing, Borodin) three years earlier. 1627: 719: 983:- as above. By the way, I think the h-index is 6, based on (900, 13, 12, 9, 8, 6, 4, ...), but it certainly isn't much higher than that, and so it is far from meeting WP:PROF. 1652:
I am amazed by the amount of bad faith (both proven and alleged) that has been running through these AfD debates. The procedure that struck me most as being anomalous was in

This is also a bad-faith nomination by a sock puppet (since blocked) that fails to provide any evidence of consensus having changed, or a coherent argument for deletion.

I apologize. I blindly accepted the result of a Chrome plugin instead of counting myself. I struck the h-index claim and I won't be using that plugin any more.

You also don't get to dictate how long an AfD lasts just because you nominated it. If some admin decides to close this as speedy keep then you can't stop them.

The nomination is rambling and incoherent. As the topic has been well aired previously, we need a better nomination to have another go around.
