My brother was one of three main authors of a published article in a peer-reviewed scholarly journal as an <u>undergrad</u> student. But there's no way I would agree that he deserves an article on that basis alone.
In this case, I would probably say to redirect him to an article on the article in question.
I might add that my brother was not just "a" main author, he was the primary author of this particular article, which itself doesn't really need a Wikipedia article. There were several others where he was credited, all as an undergrad.
If there were an article such as "List of published authors in the journal Science" and "List of published authors in the Journal of the American Medical Association" with the names of each article for each peer reviewed journal and publication, I would add him where applicable without delay.
However, I'm pretty sure such articles should not exist.
