[edit] Tabish Qureshi

Tabish Qureshi (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Deletion nomination Non-notable academic. Does not seem to meet any of the notability guidelines for either people in general or academics specifically. Lacks any independent sources and also makes very few claims that would point to notability. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 06:27, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

• Delete: Does not appear to be notable, per the lack of sources, and BIO. - Rjd0060 (talk) 06:31, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:56, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Delete The article itself claims he is only a reader. Some years away to go yet, before he becomes a Professor and potential notability. scope_creep (talk) 18:53, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

that's not \ the only factor--Senior reader has often been accepted as notability, depending on the publications and so forth. I usually argue for respecting university ranks to a certain extent, but I would never do so completely--in either direction.DGG (talk) 03:31, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

• Weak Delete WoS gives somewhat confusing results--there seem to be more than one field of research involved. If it is the same person, there is one highly cited paper, "Aspects of tachyonic inflation with an exponential potential" Sami M, Chingangbam P, Qureshi T. PHYSICAL REVIEW D 66 (4): Art. No. 043530 AUG 15 2002 cited 82 times, but otherwise there are about 10 inconsequential papers. DGG (talk) 03:39, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of India-related deletions. -- ¿Amar៛^{Talk to me/My edits} 06:54, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
