Untitled[edit]
As the article originally stood (written by its sole author), it was an obvious candidate for a speedy deletion. I have since fixed that. Gonzalez-Acuna is in fact a fairly well-known low dimensional topologist. He has published twice in the Annals of Mathematics. That article on the Annals doesn't make this clear, as we should avoid peacock terms, etc., but the fact is that it is the most prestigious journal in pure mathematics. Many good mathematicians never get into it, even though they try. The results which were published in the Annals are also important, so he has made some significant contributions and over his career so far has more than met the "above average professor" criterion. Neuwirth and Fox are also big time "classical era" topologists, so their questions and remarks hold weight. --C S (Talk) 23:45, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
As the page is no longer an obvious candidate for a speedy, I have removed the notice. Further deletion attempts should take place at AFD, although I think that is unnecessary personally. --C S (Talk) 23:51, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
