- Keep. Even in a highly cited field [https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=_7w-c7sAAAAJ&hl=en this record], which is the very first hit from the Google Scholar search linked above, shows a clear pass of WP:PROF criterion 1. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 17:54, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
- WP:SNOW keep. Along with the high citation counts mentioned above, his membership in the Royal Irish Academy [https://www.ria.ie/richard-okennedy] gives him a clear pass of WP:PROF#C3. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:03, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

- Snow keep. Full professor, highly cited, elected member of the RIA – clearly notable per WP:PROF. – Joe (talk) 21:47, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - I request that this discussion run its 7-day course as opposed to being speedily kept as I think the rationale for keeping the article on the other points of WP:PROF are weak. I don't know if it's and or or but I still think discussion is better than snow in this case. DrStrauss talk 21:56, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
- Huh? Other points? Any single point is valid for a keep. It is certainly not required that professors pass all nine points (if it were, we would only have articles about poet-presidents). —David Eppstein (talk) 23:03, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

- Keep It is only necessary to meet one of the criteria in WP:PROF. Read the guideline. (the basicone is being an authority in one's field--the others are mainly shortcuts to more easily prove that). DGG ( talk ) 03:33, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
