Draft:Beatriz Villarroel

• Comment: To clarify my AfC comment:
  1. Her h-factor is 10 with 421 total cites. For a relatively high citation field such as she is in values of > 40 & > 4000 are close to WP:NPROF.
  2. Giving talks, raising grants is what academics do, routine = WP:MILL.
  3. Her awards are all junior, we look for high level peer recognition from major societies.
  4. It is very rare for Asst Prof to be considered as notable.
  She has made a good start to her career, and her cites/year show a healthy increase. However, it is far WP:TOOSOON. Ldm1954 (talk) 03:59, 6 August 2025 (UTC)

• Comment: This is an extended CV/essay on an academic who is 10 years or so from a pass of WP:NPROF. I strongly suggest abandoning this BLP. Ldm1954 (talk) 02:54, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
