- Although Abbott isn't who would typically be measured by NACADEMIC, his American Academy of Arts and Sciences membership would qualify him under those measures. matt91486 ( talk) 11:14, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
- Weak Keep as per criteria three of NACADEMIC: "The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers)." He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, which is a prestigious scholarly association. However, he's not exactly an academic but I think those rules should still apply. Nevertheless, he had some independent coverage from The Boston Globe and Deadline Hollywood. CatchedY ( talk) 15:08, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
