Assistant professor who does not come close to meeting WP:NPROF, one of two created recently directly to main space by an editor with only a few edits. Not enough publications, no major awards. Article was draftified on WP:NPP with notability tags, but tag was removed and it was immediately moved back to main space with the claim "meets Wikipedia standards". I think an easy case of Delete.

I do not think age or institutional title should decide the eligibility for a Wikipedia page. Consult for example the Wikipedia page for Thomas Faulkner (physicist) who has had a Wikipedia page since 2014 when he joined UIUC as an assistant professor. Considering this example there is no reason to delete the page for Nima Lashkari. This is not a clear "easy case of Delete". Shoy.ouseph (talk) 14:27, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the guide in WP:NPROF. There is a broad community consensus on the criteria for notability of an academic. Ldm1954 (talk) 15:01, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. On a promising career track but the field he is in is very high-citation, so his citation record, strong as it is, is not enough to convince for WP:PROF#C1 and there seems to be nothing else. No prejudice against returning to this after five or ten years when the dust should have settled enough for us to judge this better. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:38, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:NPROF, they could be notable down the road but as of now they are not. Dr vulpes (Talk) 19:20, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
