Satisfying Wikipedia notability criteria
editCriteria to be satisfied
editThis is outlined on the Wikipedia:Notability (academics) page.
The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.
- This is satisfied by the 300+ citations for A design for a pinhole scanning helium microscope Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms (2014), the paper has acted as a guide for further development within the field
- This is further satisfied by the securing of over 2 million pounds worth of funding within the field as demonstrated in the Research section of the page
- Helium-3 spin-echo spectroscopy is a new field and the talks given at the Cambridge Physics society show that John Ellis is an academic that has contributed significantly to the awareness of the techniqe
Comparison with other similar pages
editEugene Terentjev is of another Director of Studies and Cambridge, this page is much less detailed and this satisfies WP:ANYBIO. It appears that the John Ellis page goes much further to satisfy these requirements
General discussion
editI propose the name: John Ellis (University of Cambridge Physicist)
Note: The page has been updated with multiple sources including a link to a talk and multiple research papers
He is not American, the change to (american physicist) does not therefore make sense, furthermore, University of Cambridge Physicist differentiates him from the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ellis_(physicist) page, they are both British
