As far as I can figure out, doesn't meet any of WP:NACADEMIC or general biography notability. Xurizuri (talk) 20:09, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Comment He seems to be an authority in the field of Ecological Psychology {{tq|the scientific study of perception-action from a non-functionalism approach}}. Looks like he wrote [https://www.google.com/search?q=Edward+S.+Reed&tbm=bks&ei=y3dTYeqBJZDRtAbEpbaICA&oq=Edward+S.+Reed&gs_l=psy-ab.3...5150.10379.0.10974.9.9.0.0.0.0.119.637.8j1.9.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.AM2cHVxwT9A quite a few books] and also see [http://www.worldcat.org/identities/lccn-n82067234/ Worldcat]. Oxford University lists [https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780195073010.001.0001/acprof-9780195073010 one] of his Ecological Psychology books and Yale University Press published [https://muse.jhu.edu/article/577881/pdf one]. With that said, I am not sure we can create out a biography together for an article. Lightburst (talk) 20:44, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Keep. Heavy citations give an easy pass of WP:PROF#C1, and the nine-page published academic obituary already listed as a reference and easily found online at [http://adsvm19.cc.trincoll.edu/ecopsyc/courses/psyart/Mace_Reed.pdf] or [https://doi.org/10.1207/s15326969eco0903_1] should provide plenty of material for filling out an article. JSTOR also lists multiple reviews of his books, enough for WP:AUTHOR and for more depth about the contributions of his books. Bad nomination, no effort at WP:BEFORE demonstrated, WP:DINC. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:20, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
Keep. Passes NPROF#1 based on citations. At least three books (Encountering the world: Toward an ecological psychology, From soul to mind, James J. Gibson and the psychology of perception) have several hundred citations each (the first, over a 1,000) as well as reviews which would be a pass of NAUTHOR.--Eostrix (^{🦉 hoot} _hoot🦉) 07:51, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
Comment: oh fuck I think I nominated the wrong article. I'm so sorry to waste people's time, I had too many tabs open and I'm super bad with names. I'll be more careful in the future. --Xurizuri (talk) 08:22, 2 October 2021 (UTC)
