Reason for PROD removal

PROD stated: "Run-of-the-mill non-notable academic. No indication of notability. The closest thing to a basis of notability is the statement that he's a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, but a review of the list at [1] shows that there are several hundred of such fellows. It's no doubt a worthy professional achievement but does not in itself rise to notability. Article was started by an editor whose name suggests he may have a WP:COI with respect to the subject; and judging from the oversighted edit history, consisted largely of a bio cut-and-pasted from one of the subject's own books."

The university's own website states that he is a Distinguished Research Professor, so he meets WP:NACADEMIC "5. The person holds or has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research", even without considering the other criteria.
