Regarding the proposed deletion for "lack of notability"

[edit]

The guidelines for notability state: "The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field." In the specific field of astronomy, this astronomer has discovered several asteroids and supernovae, and these discoveries are now in the permanent astronomical record (journals and the IAU's Minor Planet Center asteroid lists). Isn't that enough to meet the criterion? Urhixidur (talk) 19:42, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion should not have been closed

[edit]

This AFD should have been relisted (or re-relisted) to gain community consensus on the matter. Given the limited discussion I think I will be relisting this in a shorter period of time than usual. JBsupreme (talk) 21:13, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
