Comment: Primary sources and passing mentions do not establish notability per WP:GNG, and I can't see anything there which would make him obviously notable under WP:NACADEMIC. Please help us understand why this person is notable, and provide the evidence to support that. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:18, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: He seems likely to be notable but the sources here are a long way from proving it. asilvering (talk) 03:33, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Two sources – one written by the subject himself, the other doesn't even mention him – is nowhere near enough to even verify the information, let alone to establish notability. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:41, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: We don't use external links in the body of an article. Theroadislong (talk) 19:45, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Ralph J. Slutz (May 18, 1917, in Cleveland, Ohio – November 16, 2005, in Boulder, Colorado) was an American computer pioneer and physicist.[1], best remembered for his work in the Computer Project at the Institute of Advanced Study[2][3][4], 1946-1948, and for his work as an inventor and the Chief Architect for the SEAC (computer) with Samuel N. Alexander at the National Bureau of Standards (NIST today), 1948-1954[5]. He became the Chief of the Radio Propagation Physics Division of the National Bureau of Standards at Boulder, Colorado in 1954[1].
In 1980, after retiring from the National Bureau of Standards, he became a senior research scientist leading the ICOADS project[6][1] at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), University of Colorado at Boulder. Ralph Slutz co-authored the first paper of the ICOADS project, entitled “A Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set”, published in Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society in 1987[7]. This huge data set is the most widely used and freely available collection of the global surface marine data in the world from 1662 to now [8]
Ralph Slutz received both BS and MS degrees in Electrical Engineering from MIT in 1938 and 1939 respectively[1], and his Ph.D. theoretical physics in 1946[1].
The Ralph J. Slutz Student Award[9] has been established since 2010 in Computer Science Department, University of Colorado at Boulder.
