This article doesn't say anything about the person except that he invented the raptor codes, about which there already is an article. PROD was contested: "that might be a reason for redirection, but certainly not for deletion". I see no reason to redirect - searching will find the person's name in the article about raptor codes.

 * Keep Search is not an adequate way to find things, and a redirect to an article that says what he did is certainly a reason to keep a redirect. Until there is more in the article a redirect and merge to the raptor codes article is reasonable. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 01:36, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. I extended the article a bit. Shokrollahi is a notable figure in graph-based coding theory. Nageh (talk) 12:33, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
 * PS: This AfD should have been put into the "Science and technology" sub-category so I don't stumble across such deletion attempt by pure chance. Nageh (talk) 12:47, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
