Talk:Maggie Miller (mathematician)

Notability

This page is currently flagged as potentially not meeting notability requirements. One of the criteria on the Wikipedia Notability guidelines for academics is that the person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level. Maggie Miller meets this criterion; Clay Research Fellowships through MIT and Stanford Science Fellowships are both highly prestigious awards that cite significant scientific contributions in the field of mathematics. Several secondary sources by organizations other than Miller herself are cited. I plan to continue work on this page to further back up these citations, but wanted to make a note of this in case the page is flagged for deletion. If anyone has suggestions on how to better document Miller's notability in the mathematics community, suggestions are welcome. ⁠— Anna Marie Vagnozzi (talk) 16:27, 20 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

No, those do not count as the kind of award that WP:PROF#C2 is looking for. Graduate fellowships and postdoctoral fellowships and even early-career research excellence awards are generally too low-level to count for that. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:17, 20 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
I hope this notability discussion is moot now that Miller has been named one of Forbes' 30 Under 30 for Science in 2023. She's notable enough to warrant a page. CodexFelinus (talk) 22:28, 18 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
