This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and either hook could be used, the article is neutral, and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:54, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@SL93: I have added a couple of references, but I am the first to admit that they are not high quality. One is the subject's CV and the other is his University research profile. Unfortunately, none of these organizations publish lists of their Fellows, nor do they put out annual news releases or similar about new Fellows. Some did offer to confirm an individual's status on request, but I can't put that up as a reference. So we seem to be stuck - is the article adequate for DYK like this, or do you think it is better to remove that section until better sources can be found? Would you prefer if I tagged "better source needed"?Gronk Oz (talk) 06:03, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
