Is this a vanity page?

I put a wikify notice on the page, but I think VfD might be more appropriate. It seems life a vanity page, but perhaps this person is somewhat notable in his field? --Polynova 20:14, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

Apparently Professor Robert Evans is the Europaeum Visiting Professor to Leiden University, for 2005, if that helps, probably not as notable as his colleague Prof Sir John Elliott, whose musical namesake gets a mention and Sir John doesn't (Sir John is 'hanging' in the National Portrait Gallery), there are a lot of Prof Robert Evans I had difficulty in deciding which was this one.
