[edit] Shahid Hussain Bokhari
NN comptuer science researcher. There are thousands of other similar nn researchers with similar credentials. --Ragib 19:25, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- Note to closing admin: Since this didn't have any discussion at all, it should be relisted to have more opinions. --Ragib 03:09, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - not with 34k + google hits and sites listed in ICASE, german, - Multiscale computing, Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Georgia Tech and the like. The article though, is in need of help.Bakaman Bakatalk 01:51, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

- Illinois Urbana-Champaign is a mailing list announcement about a talk. If I give a talk tomorrow (which I would within a few months), I'll be listed in the mailing list announcement as well. The "German" link you mention above is a bibliography site, and (I'm listed there as well) 5th year PhD students, newly hired Assistant professors have similar publications listed there. I do not see any crowning achivement listed in any of his biographies. That's the main point. To be notable, there must be something that distinguishes him from thousands and thousands of other professors, post docs, research scientists etc. --Ragib 02:03, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

- Also, the large number of google hits occur because his first name and last names are very common. Narrow it down to "shahid bokhari", it gives out 571 hits. Google "Shahid H. Bokhari", it says 11k hits, but go to the 18th page, and the rest of the pages are duplicates. (Incidentally, now almost any one gets at last 8,000/9,000 hits (I myself get 9,000 hits in google). So, Google hits isn't really a measure of notability, unless they yield other results of notability. --Ragib 02:09, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

- Does the "Highly Cited" link mean anything?Hornplease
- AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks, Mailer Diablo 14:17, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Delete verifiability and notability issues. Ghits is much smaller (~350) when the exact phrase is employed. Eusebeus 15:13, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. To give perspective, there are a total of 320 computer scientists in the world on the ISI Highly Cited list. He's in that group. Also he is a fellow of both ACM and IEEE. In my opinion, this is notable. The article could certainly be written to better convey his contributions. E.g. the name of his best known paper. EdJohnston 14:31, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. notability established with highly cited. --Buridan 23:20, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
its not abt the talks that he gave or the google hits that he gets. There may be others that may have similar credentals as Dr Bokahri..but he has done some of the pioneering work in the field of parallel & distributed systems and computer architecture. He has over 1000 citations and as i recall, one of his papers had more than 300 citations... This amount of pioneering work and this many citations....are crowning achievemments... I am sure there wont be any newly appointed assistant professors...having over 1000 citations... FAHAD SAEED
