Article reads like somebody's resume

It appears that the article creator just copied the subject's resume into Wikipedia. The subject may be notable enough for an article, but right now it looks like an advertisement. AstroCog (talk) 17:42, 27 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

yep. added coi tags above. Jytdog (talk) 22:31, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Improving the article

I've been working on some improvements to the article in my sandbox here. I focused on improving the sourcing where I could, as well some trimming in the Biography section. I also consolidated his accolades into lists in separate section and turned Selected publications into its own top-level section. (Link to diff.) Can anyone take a look and help review it to make sure it's compliant with Wikipedia guidelines? I'd appreciate any feedback I can get. Rjwilmsi, Natureium do either of you have some free time?--FacultiesIntact (talk) 00:48, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

FacultiesIntact, I can do the review - hopefully I'll start it sometime between a couple of days and one week from now. GregorB (talk) 20:32, 9 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have reviewed the content in the above mentioned sandbox page and copied it here to the article proper. In the process, I have also removed the COI template from the article. After reviewing it, I'm satisfied that it is factual, properly sourced, neutral, and free from other content problems. GregorB (talk) 19:52, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
