Article does not provide enough context or background that suffices WP:GNG, also he fails the academic specific guideline, all his background resumes to ONE:EVENT a university teacher whom had a major in another country, in a uncommon scientific field that was president of the euro mathematical society and was awarded by the Wolfson Research Institute. Also I should mention that notability is not inherited. Eduemoni↑talk↓ 21:04, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Ahem, surely the article does? Mathsfreak (talk) 21:25, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The Royal Society award would be enough to give notability. The maths society is borderline, but combined there's not doubt about notability. The article needs rewriting and references.--Dmol (talk) 22:46, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Easily notable. --bender235 (talk) 18:00, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. Good GS cites in low cited field. President of European Mathematical Society. Nominator is advised to read WP:Prof before making further nominations in this area. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:58, 14 May 2011 (UTC).[reply]
- Keep: Presidencies of Swedish and then European Maths Socs would seem to me to easily meet our WP:Prof requirments. (Msrasnw (talk) 10:23, 15 May 2011 (UTC))[reply]
- Keep. As President of the European Mathematical Society and of the Swedish Mathematical Society, passes WP:PROF#C6. Nsk92 (talk) 13:19, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Snow Keep Nominator is requested to withdraw the nomination, rather than letting his error stand in this case. RayTalk 05:43, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
