[edit] Saleem Ali

Seems to be borderline notability and was created by the subject. DJ Clayworth 18:02, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep maybe a bit marginal and could do with some editing. Dlyons493 Talk 18:46, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete strictly on the basis of NN. Clearly it looks like a vanity page. Basically, it's a resumé, it's autobiographical, and the assertion of notability is weak. On the other hand, he isn't a nobody. There is some interesting stuff about him here [1]. I'm voting to delete because there doesn't seem to be anything here to distinguish him from tens of thousands of other university professors. They all have nice resumes, they all have something published, they all attend conferences and work on projects. It's not enough. Slowmover 19:37, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, notable as published author of nontrivial scholary book. If Wikipedia has articles on every professor out there with degrees from Tufts, Yale, and MIT, and who serve on UN advisory boards, it might require nearly as much space as is currently devoted to the activities of Jack Thompson, Esq., but I expect Jimbo would be ready to cough up the small change needed if additional server space is really required.
