M P Chaudhary

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Apparently non-notable mathematician, highest citation on Scholar is 14. Article is an autobiography, most of it unsourced, and some of it apparently not without an element of fantasy: he claims to have been the "Albert Einstein Chair Professor of Mathematical Sciences", but the only hits on Google for that position (or variants thereof) relate to this person. Of course, if he holds or has held a named professorship, that would be an automatic pass of WP:NPROF. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 14:32, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete The article claims that he is a "Fellow of [the] International Academy of Bisosciences [sic]". This organization doesn't even seem to have a website any more, but going to the Wayback Machine finds what looks to be a list of journals they published. These were then subsumed by Nexus Academic Publishers, a probable predatory company. So, don't be fooled. Also, the opening sentence is a copyvio of his website ("working on Number Theory, especially the fields of interest to Srinivasa Ramanujan"). And those 14 citations on Google Scholar? He's coauthor on all of them. He appears to be the same M. P. Chaudhary who co-authored "On identification of the nature of triangle by new approach" (no, just read it), since both its acknowledgements and his website mention a stay at Julius-Maximilians-Universitat, Wurzburg in 2014.

 * Delete. Beyond the failure of academic notability there's a more basic failure of verifiability. The "International Scientific Research and Welfare Organization" listed here as his affiliation doesn't seem to exist separately from him, the second organization, the "Centre for Mathematical Sciences", is a deadlink from 2008, and its archived copy doesn't mention Chaudhary. It is difficult not to conclude (also from the interesting piece of writing linked above) that much of this is simply made up. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:12, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete fails notability criteria. So said The Great Wiki Lord. (talk) 03:36, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete There's no indication that WP:GNG is met and I don't see anything to convince me that WP:NPROF is met. Lots of puffery, vague statements (e.g., "visited...prestigious universities"), and the problems already mentioned in previous comments all lead me to the same conclusion--there's no independent verifiable evidence than any notability criteria is met.

 * Delete and salt. As mentioned above, apart from the lack of notability, there are also significant WP:V issues here. E.g. the lead says that ``He has authored more than 150 research papers and 35 books and monographs". MathSciNet only lists 33 publications by the subject (with the grand total of 1 citation). MathSciNet indexes almost everything published in mathematics, so it is hard to imagine that they would have missed over a 100 publications by the subject. Nsk92 (talk) 17:58, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete.   Because of the nature of the field, the expected citation numbers for notable mathematicians are lower than in biomedicine, but he does not meet even the most minimal standard.  DGG ( talk ) 01:30, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
