A cursory search for Mehran Mesbahi name on google or other search engines indicates the large number of citations for his work. He is one of the pioneers in the area of distributed spacecraft and networked dynamic systems. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rumi2 (talk • contribs) 15:58, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

This article is on a leading living researcher in control theory and adheres to WikiProject Biography / Science and Academia, WikiProject Robotics, and WikiProject Systems. --Rumi2 (talk) 16:20, 26 March 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rumi2 (talk • contribs) 16:04, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - there are enough sources at Google and Google scholar to make this a decent article per WP:GNG, and he is a laboratory chief, although I'm still not sure he passes WP:PROF. Bearian (talk) 18:44, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. I am finding enough cites on GS to pass WP:Prof. Please will the nominator expand on his reasons for deletion? He does not make them explicit. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:45, 26 March 2011 (UTC).
 * Keep - With a preliminary research I've found a lot of sources that reinforces the notability of this Academic figure. The article should reference them and also get expanded. Eduemoni↑talk↓  21:56, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

WP:Prof definitely applies.--Rumi2 (talk) 00:47, 29 March 2011 (UTC) — Rumi2 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Keep- not sure if the original contributor can also vote on this- but in any case this person is considered a rather influential researcher in the area of dynamic networks and control so
 * Keep - The 2004 NASA award should satisfy WP:Prof. Dru of Id (talk) 14:35, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
