Talk:Abdul–Aziz Yakubu (mathematician)

Edits addressing notability concern
Hi @Onel5969, I felt that the original sources were indicative of notability, but I added additional information to the draft about Yakubu's education, academic journals that published his work and participation in professional organizations.


 * A profile in Science, backed by the American Association for the Advancement of Science is a big deal
 * An obituary in the National Association of Mathematicians seems to point to notability
 * an academic journal issue dedicated to his memory is not seen often, but I think is indicative of his impact and notability in the community

Happy to get your thoughts on this. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 00:04, 10 May 2023 (UTC)


 * As always, always a pleasure. This is one of those cases where delving in reveals more detail.  As part of my review process, if there is not enough in-depth coverage (which is not unusual for academics), I click the "Scholar" link in the notability tag, which gave me this result, now there is one article in that result, of which he is one of several co-authors, with a decent citation count.  But only the one.  However, it did not give me his Scholar profile, which I did not see at the bottom of the article.  That gives him an h-Index of 28, which is okay, but not great.  That being said, if I had not missed that, I would have pinged my go-to editor on academic subjects,  for their opinion.  I would personally lean towards the notable enough side in this instance.  But I would love to hear David Eppstein's opinion.  Onel 5969  TT me 00:36, 10 May 2023 (UTC)
