- Delete. A GoogleScholar profile gives him h-index of 22, with top cited publication of 107. For an Assistant Professor, that's quite qood, but not enough yet to satify WP:PROF#C1 in a high citation discipline like communication engineering. Also, the article was expanded from a redirect by User:Hdrsalam. The same user uploaded the photo to Commons, currently used in the article, with the source specified as "own work". It is likely that we are dealing with a WP:AUTO case here. So taken together, I believe that's a 'delete'. Nsk92 (talk) 11:11, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - meets neither WP:GNG or WP:NSCHOLAR.Onel5969 TT me 13:41, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. The Google Scholar citations are borderline, but not quite enough to convince me of WP:PROF#C1, and the autobiography issues tip me from weak delete to full delete. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:41, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

- Comment I'm concerned about the WP:COI, and want to confirm whether the original
dabredirect page--which was erased for the autobiography--will be restored. 2601:188:180:B8E0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 15:30, 28 September 2020 (UTC) - Delete per Nsk92 and David Eppstein; we should restore the redirect to Abd al- Salam (name) without keeping the COI-filled page history.

- Yes, sure, that'd be OK. Nsk92 (talk) 17:37, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete as others have said. If it wasn't for likely WP:AUTO I'd be thinking more along the lines of WP:TOOSOON. -Kj cheetham (talk) 15:15, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete — per rationale by Johnpacklambert + no auto can ever be written from a neutral point of view, this individual doesn’t meet the relevant SNG neither do they satisfy GNG. Celestina007 (talk) 18:34, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
