I don't think that the person qualifies notability per WP:PROF. I couldn't find any significant news about the person. However, the Scholar results may be notable, but I'm unsure because it's an area which I don't know that much. Ahmetlii (talk) 11:25, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. Prof. Barkai has made seminal contributions that completely revolutionized the field of non-stationary statistical physics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carrerc (talk • contribs) 16:10, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. His top-cited papers are cited 749, 620, 537, 448, and 371 times according to Scopus, and he has an h-index of 51. JoelleJay (talk) 17:18, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. clearly notable by his citation counts and various awards that he won, he passes WP:NPROF#1. --hroest 17:54, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify Keep Although the subject passes WP:NACADEMIC criterion 1 with the high numbers of citations, none of the stated facts is supported by IRS - I failed to find anything as well. We might need some help from Hebrew speaking editor, but for now per WP:BLP we can't keep the article in the mainspace. Less Unless (talk) 21:59, 24 March 2021 (UTC) Changed to keep after the JoelleJays fair point. Less Unless (talk) 10:39, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Less Unless, meeting NPROF supersedes GNG, so it's not necessary to find independent RS. His university profile is considered adequate for verifying the routine info currently in the article, and reasonable summaries of his research can be crafted from his high-impact scholarly output.

- JoelleJay, You are right, it slipped my mind the academic guideline is independent. Changing my vote to keep then. Thank you.Less Unless (talk) 10:39, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Tzahy according to WP:NPROF and current consensus, it is not enough to be full professor somewhere, even full professor at Harvard is by itself not enough. However, most full professors at large western research universities have done enough research to pass the actual bars set in NPROF. In most cases it stands to reason that the faculty at a major university have promoted him to full professor which means that his academic contribution are substantial. (note that not all full profs are research profs, they could also be doing other work such as teaching which would not make them notable) --hroest 17:13, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi hroest, thank you for acknowledging me, how do you know that ? However it doesn't matter, he has a very impressive citation index, more than many or most of the full professors in research universities, and it should be enough I think. Tzahy (talk) 15:08, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
