Mahmud Saedon Othman

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable; the claimed notability is from institutions I can establish no notability for, even in the Arabic language (which "University Brunei Darussalam" - I can confirm his history with neither the old or the new). Essentially a CV or biography (or memorial) of this man. Non-referenced. St John Chrysostom ΔόξατωΘεώ 17:29, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I did try to rescue this briefly but there is no coverage in reliable sources and it seems to fail WP:GNG as well as WP:ACADEMICTheroadislong (talk) 18:25, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. This is a CV having no confirmable WP:RS. Agricola44 (talk) 16:16, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment The subject seems to be more commonly referred to as Mahmud Saedon Bin Awang Othman and, under that name, was verifiably vice-chancellor of Universiti Brunei Darussalam between the dates stated in the article . PWilkinson (talk) 10:32, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails all criteria for WP:PROF, except possibly #5 if his vice-chancellor position qualifies, but Universiti Brunei Darussalam looks pretty small with only 2,800 students. Overall, it doesn't look like WP:Notability at all. Iglooflame (talk) 01:27, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
