 * Delete - (1) Per No original research, articles may not contain any unpublished arguments, ideas, data, or theories; or any unpublished analysis or synthesis of published arguments, ideas, data, or theories that serves to advance a position. In particular, a Wikipedia article about a person should not include unpublished analysis.  Mutsengi has done many noteworthy things and that is what the unpublished analysis in the article seeks to prove.  This unpublished analysis violates No original research. (2) Per Notability, a topic is notable if it has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works from sources that are reliable and independent of the subject itself and each other such that there exists enough source material to write a verifiable, encyclopedic article about the topic.  The article should be created using multiple non-trivial published works that discuss Mutsengi himself (which the article does not).  The article RBZ Must Encourage Use of Plastic Money does mention that Asher Tarivona-Mutsengi is a research scholar at the University of Texas at Austin, College of Natural Sciences, but that is not enough source material to write a verifiable, encyclopedic article about the topic.  Mutsengi is from Zimbabwe, so a problem might be that the multiple non-trivial published works that discuss Mutsengi himself are located in Zimbabwe and not accessible over the Internet.  If the author of the article can find some multiple non-trivial published works that discuss Mutsengi himself, please include those in the article.  However, it does not appear that the topic meets Notability and I do not think it can meet Notability.  Thus, I believe that the article should be deleted. -- Jreferee 18:43, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
