make it sufficiently notable. Could you not have done something similar, or contacted someone who might be able to so? Nothing changed in this AfD until I put in Marcy. I think you were capable of doing the same and had the ability to know this before AfD'ing. So, frankly, I do not know what to believe with all the stuff I have seen in
Knowledge (XXG). I assume good faith, but I have certainly seen good faith used as a crutch to hide behind against perfectly decent editors who were just trying. In these cases it causes me to question because it may be a definite possibility (but not necessarily true). You point out that several academics recently have been deleted. I again have to question. Did you do something positive to save any of them? Or did you AfD them? I have no way of knowing unless I really start checking. Look at the people's time, not to mention your own, that was eaten up by this AfD and the frustration you caused them. Impressive. I can truly say I think you angered some of the female editors. Why? My impression, which may not be in fact, is like someone who steps on an anthill and watches the ensuing havoc, perhaps with delight. Maybe you may have a liking for astronomy. Fantastic. I think I have seen your username recently on something. Good if you are positively contributing. I can think of several W items in astronomy that would be nice to have, or even RCW's. There are thousands of NGC items that are needed. Knowledge (XXG) needs lots of filling of its knowledge holes. I look forward to your positive contributions.

co-author to a complex, highly collaborative research project. Just this week, I read a press release by a major university which really trumped up the role of one of its graduate students in a recent research paper -- without even acknowledging that someone unaffiliated with the school was the lead author. Moreover, in observational astronomical research, some co-authors might contribute crucial observational data, offer insightful interpretations of data, or write parts of the final paper. The fact that observational astronomy is a collaborative endeavor doesn't diminish the achievements of the lead author, but it does make it somewhat unrealistic to assign one person the sole credit for the outcome of a research collaboration. To the extent that the contributions of Dr. Ballard's co-authors are relevant here, they shouldn't be assumed to be trivial simply because of the lack of media coverage. Put another way, Dr. Ballard has been a co-author on several papers, and her contributions to those works should not be presumed negligible simply because the media might not have paid attention to them.

December to a small randomly selected stub article on an archeological site in Ancient Egypt. Then someone did vandalism slow style over the holidays trying to Nazify a person therein and promote the sale of their book. I reverted the vandalism and defended the victim. The other person lost. I was given a warning for the proper reverting. Warnings or sanctions are given to all parties regardless of whether it is proper or just. I have spent over 9,000 hours of my time on WP. I should not feel this way, but I am proud I defended that person. If I have to go down defending a woman astronomer on WP, so be it. By the way, I am a male. People can always go to my talk page to explore the truth (a waste of your time in my case). Any relation to Ten Pound Hammer and his various otters on WP? I can always leave and never come back. My opinions are my own. My response is no to you. Rather, I am "taken aback". I bet a college class on AfD would be downright fascinating.
1988:: I'd just like to point out that keeping articles like this is very unusual for Knowledge (XXG). Most people are not considered noteworthy until they do something significantly new and path-breaking or are widely known. Sarah Ballard neither leads the Kepler mission, nor invented the methods she used to find the planets, nor found a considerable number of planets (compared to the many other people who have found planets). Instead, she is a member of the Kepler team with access to the data, applied methods developed by others (the transit timing method invented by David Charbonneau), and discovered several planets in the super-Earth, sub-Neptune range (incrementally expanding the population of known planets for statistical analysis). We need more people doing good incremental work like her, but there are already many research assistants at universities like her doing similar work. Articles like this make Knowledge (XXG) more resemble a resume service, like Linkedin, and less resemble an encyclopedia.
1737:. I have to regrettably observe that this article is another case in which boosters (in this case for articles on women) are misdirecting the discussion. For those who do not know or who are willfully looking past the way in which the dynamics of "big science projects" work...this case is entirely typical: a post-doc is lead author on a paper that represents a team effort of dozens (sometimes hundreds) of people, all of whose names are on the paper, and an excited but not terribly informed media contact the first author for talking points. The philosophical error of some of the above arguments, which basically amount to "there are sources, so GNG!", is that PROF was developed because a very large fraction of academics would otherwise qualify exactly in this way. (One might view this from the perspective of statistics in that academics, as a cohort, are not a random sampling of the population. Rather, they are highly biased
1849:. Why not just add to the article folks? Interesting responses, some stretching though on both sides (especially the deletionists who just can't stand not having the last word). I have changed the lede (still keeping the original one below it for the moment during discussion). Ballard qualifies alone as any 1 of the 3 Fellows. Sagan and especially L'Oreal stand out. She qualifies again independently because of TTV. She qualifies for having discovered 4 planets. She qualifies further with the Marcy situation. The Marcy case is the strongest of the 6 and is GNG. In light of Marcy, I trust this AfD was not exercised as payback. I am tired right now -- we astrobats need rest in daylight -- and will return in about 9 hours to fill in referencing, etc. The article is now definitely keepable. Brianhe is to be commended for selecting this appropriate biography article.
499:(one way or the other) will not either. Whether or not a meetup created biographies that fail notability is not a reason to keep or delete this article. Labeling something "politically correct" is meaningless, since nobody agrees what is or isn't politically correct; it's just a redundant way of saying "I don't like it." Red herrings, all. It is not a red herring to remind editors that systemic bias is a real thing that exists, and therefore we should all should exercise due care before making drive-by !votes. Bias or not, nobody should cite WP:ACADEMIC, or any other all-caps shortcut, if they obviously haven't actually read it. It does not say what most of these guys think it says. --
1809:"Could have" chosen the supervisor isn't an argument. The facts are it is Ballard who is talked about in the majority of the articles. Yes, it is hard to separate and find who did what on a project... such an endeavor, however, would be "original research." We already have RS that show that Ballard is notable in this project. We do not need to do original research in order to make sure journalists haven't already done their due diligence in this process. There is no need for PROF here. And this has nothing to do with her "being a woman." I personally devote my time to women's articles, but I would argue that if Ballard was male, the same GNG bar has been passed.
1323:"Sarah Ballard at the University of Washington in Seattle and her colleagues estimated the planet's diameter at about 18,8000 km..." I understand what a secondary source is, thank you: you are indicating that not all secondary sources are independent or reliable. Each must be evaluated on its own merits. I agree. In this example, Nature is a secondary source talking about Ballard's work on the exoplanet. The paper at Astrophysics is the primary source. Nature is one of the most cited scientific journals in the world. Ballard is not the press liaison. She is clearly listed as the lead in the study:

It is very typical for a post-doc to be a first author on a group paper, but one has to remember that that person is working under the supervision of a senior scientist, project leader, or professor. Ballard very likely will be notable in the future, but an article will have to wait until she has accomplishments that can more clearly be attributed to her own work/leadership/research.

My sources pass GNG.
1249:. A reliable source is something that we can reference to make some specific statement, with specific attribution. For example: "According to Professor X of the Royal Astronomical Society, Ballard's has made significant contributions to the study of exoplanets through the introduction of transit timing variations." That is what is missing here. An
