 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

An internet search and Google Scholar search reveals that this man does not satisfy the requirements of WP:PROF, WP:GNG or WP:SIGCOV. And his so-called research involves at least one article (http://nexusacademicpublishers.com/table_contents_detail/4/500/html) in a "predatory" publisher (Nexus Academic Publishers) listed on Beall's List (https://beallslist.net/).

 * Hello, I hope you are well.
 * You got issues from Abdollah (Khosrow) Samiei's Wikipedia article. As you said, I will try to improve this article.
 * At first, this article was uncategorized, but now this article is in the category of person and academic.
 * After that, there was no link to this article on any Wikipedia page and the article was orphaned, but now it exists this article is not orphaned.
 * Also, this article had fewer sources for notability, but now various references have been added to it, and I am adding more references to prove notability.
 * I hope I was able to change your mind and agree with me that this article has the potential to stay on Wikipedia.
 * Please refer to this link in Google Scholar and you will come across various articles from Dr. Samiei's.https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=abdollah+samiei&btnG=
 * I think this can also help to convince you that this page should stay in Wikipedia. Amisiy

 * Delete, Fails notability. Alex-h (talk) 16:51, 28 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete. Citation record too low to pass WP:PROF and no other form of notability visible. The article was a little longer before being cut down to the nominated version but the extra length just listed more low-visibility publications, not helpful for establishing notability. I'm not putting much weight in the "he published in a predatory journal" argument, though: anyone might do that for any number of reasons, including not realizing it was predatory. Those publications can't be used as reliable sources on Wikipedia, and we might discount them as counting towards scholarly notability even if they were heavily cited, but that doesn't seem to be an issue here. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:52, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
