BLP without any demonstration of notability. It was tagged by Klbrain with a PROD in April 2024; the PROD was objected to with some discussion of improving it. Fast forward to August 2024 and nothing has changed. No proof of notability so nominated for deletion. Ldm1954 (talk) 10:05, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete; doesn't meet WP:NACADEMIC and there seems to be no interest from editors in the alternative proposal on using the text as a core for an article on psychophonetics. Yehuda Tagar seems to be a practitioner who frames his practice as an institute, but doesn't seem to be recognized expert in the discipline. The references all support psychophonetics as a topic, but not Tagar. Google scholar shows about 3 publications from Tagar. The page seems promotional.

• Delete. Psychology can be a very high-citation field but he has very low citation counts, so he does not pass WP:PROF#C1. And heading organizations might only be cause for notability if those organizations themselves are notable independently from the subject, for which we have no evidence. The claim to have founded psychophonetics is made implausible by Google Scholar searching which finds the term to be used for subjects related to psychoacoustics going back to the 19th century and Jan Baudouin de Courtenay. Perhaps Tagar uses it in a different sense but that other meaning seems to be the more common one. So I tend to agree with the comment mentioned by Klbrain that retargeting rather than deletion might be a bad idea. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:02, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Regular professional at work. Nothing wrong with that but it does not make one encyclopedic. I have give or take 3 scientific publications and am definitely not notable! The primary is needed for a notable Yehuda Tagar who was a Mossad agent. Just died at the ripe age 100.[1] gidonb (talk) 15:34, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
