Moved this discussion from Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Talk:John Allison (physicist). User:Wormcast argued for deletion based on the following: not notable. The "highly cited" status is an artifact of large projects that rely on certain software, not an indication of fundamental contributions to the field. No opinion from me about deletion.

Delete. Agree with nom. GS h-index is less then 10 although the first few cites are stupendous. This case is a prime example of why h-index is a better measure of publication impact than citation count. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:05, 27 April 2016 (UTC).[reply]
