Highly fluffy article created in draftspace as part of what appears to be a walled garden, and accepted by User:SwisterTwister--so yes it's problematic. It's a typical vanispam BLP for an academic who may have done a thing or two but does not achieve notability per NPROF or GNG. See the references--it's not there.

Delete. With a single digit h-index, and apparently no books, it's pretty clear that WP:PROF#C1 and WP:AUTHOR are out of reach. I don't see a pass of any other academic notability criterion. I can only find brief namedrops in local news (e.g. [1]) so I don't see much chance for WP:GNG. And the breathless primary-sourced reporting of every little non-notable thing he's done gives the clear appearance of promotionalism. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:35, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
