| Submission declined on 4 June 2025 by HilssaMansen19 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue).

| Submission declined on 3 June 2025 by GoldRomean (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. Declined by GoldRomean 37 hours ago. | |
Comment: He is one of many in one of the massive HEP groups. Currently there are no indications that he specifically (as against the group) is notable, his citation numbers have to be compared to others. His awards are either part of the group or junior, so are not enough. If he had his own major award such as being elected as an APS Fellow that would pass WP:NPROF.

- Comment: Thank you for your work. For now, the draft is not being accepted. Before submitting it again - Please add such sources like those mentioned here that meets general notability guidelines. There is no addition of significant coverage about the subject directly. HilssaMansen19Irien1291S • spreading wiki love ~ Message here; no calls 06:13, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

Jonathan Link is an American experimental particle physicist whose research has included experimental studies neutrino detection and neutrino oscillations. Link's has worked on a mobile neutrino detector concept, designed to track nuclear activity by rogue nations.[1] [2] [3] [4] He is a Professor of Physics and Affiliated Faculty in the Nuclear Engineering Program at Virginia Tech. In 2016 he received, along with collaborators, the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics[5], followed in 2023 by the the High Energy and Particle Physics Prize[6] for his work on the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment for the first non-zero measurement of the neutrino mixing parameter .
Education and career
[edit]Link studied at the University of California Davis, completing his B.S in Physics in 1993, his M.S. in Physics in 1996 and his Ph.D in experimental particle Physics in 2001, under the supervision of Philip M. Yager.[1] After completing a postdoctoral appointment at Columbia University he started a faculty position in the Virginia Tech Physics Department in 2006, and received tenure in 2010 and promoted to Full Professor of Physics in 2014. He was the director of the Center for Neutrino Physics from 2012 to 2018.[7] Link is the Spokesperson of the CHANDLER Reactor Neutrino Experiment since 2015[8] and was the Co-Founder of the Braidwood Reactor Neutrino Experiment (2003)[9]. Link is also a member of the COHERENT, Mobile Antineutrino Demonstrator (MAD), Neutrinos from STORed Muons (nuSTORM), Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment, and Mini Booster Neutrino Experiment (MiniBooNE) experiments. Link worked on the Mobile Neutrino Lab for monitoring neutrinos from nuclear reactors.[2][3]
Recognition
[edit]In 2016, as a member of the Daya Bay collaboration, Link was awarded the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics,[5] and in 2023 the the High Energy and Particle Physics Prize from the European Physical Society.[6] In 2008 Link received a U.S. Department of Energy junior investigator award.[10] Link has also been recognized by Virginia Tech with the 2017 Virginia Tech College of Science Dean's Discovery Fund Award[11] and in June 13-19, 2016 the Virginia Tech Scholar of the Week.[12]
