High-velocity human factors

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I don't think this is a notable theory/area of study - the article is sourced exclusively to papers by a single researcher (Moin Rahman), and none of the papers have significant citations or coverage in other, independent sources. Many of the links in the "external links" section are, again, to the author's own papers on scribd, or to news articles that don't even mention Moin Rahman or "high velocity human factors." I'll admit that this is not my area of expertise, but I can find no evidence that this is a notable or recognized theory/area of study. Fyddlestix (talk) 03:18, 23 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. The article is barely comprehensible pseudoscience that hasn't been improved despite evidence of prompting. The few articles that link to it are entirely inappropriate, suggesting that the readers haven't been able to work out what it means and just guessed at the intended meaning from the title. The single-source is the most concrete objections; so, not sufficiently notable.Klbrain (talk) 22:17, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Delete. The only references given are by M. Rahman who is the creator of the term as stated in one of the paper abstracts. The name of M. Rahman's company is HVHF Sciences LLC, and "High Velocity Human Factors" is the title of the company's home page. He the only person to use the term in publications. Even if the term catches on it is too soon to have an article. So far there are only the primary sources. It needs to be covered in reliable secondary sources.
