I would say that there is sufficient assertion of notability, in that he is claimed to have discovered the Neptunian ring system. Whether that is enough should be an AFD debate. My personal opinion is that this is definitely enough. --Pekaje14:03, 28 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
If the individual really did discover Neptune's rings, there's no question about his notability. Keep if that's the case.

Its more than enough--it just wasn't shown at the top of the articles so it may not have gotten noticed. The claim was sourced, and confirmed by dozens of articles in Google Scholar, etc. Naturally, I declined to delete it and have left a note for the guy who tagged it. (The artcicle should be expanded, though, with fuller discussions and references to his other work. DGG15:51, 28 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
