Fails WP:NPROF. Refs are passing mentions. Scopus shows nothing of significance, nor GS. Fails WP:BIO, WP:SIGCOV.  scope_creep Talk  22:32, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators, Science,  and Azerbaijan.  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:38, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep: Sources in Azerbaijani exist (1, 2, 3, 4, & 5). AmshitBalcon (talk) 22:47, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Most of these WP:PRIMARY. Him doing a speech or an interview. Really need secondary sources WP:SECONDARY to satisfy WP:BLP. I don't think he passes WP:NPROF and I don't think I can see any reviews for books or chapters he's written. Being a rector doesn't make you automatically notable. At least I don't think so.    scope_creep Talk  23:11, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
 * If the rector of this university has the "highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution" then he is notable per WP:PROF. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:45, 14 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep per WP:PROF. From what I can see, rector is indeed the head of what in this case appears to be a historic and nationally-significant university. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:27, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment I wasn't sure. I do remember a rector getting elected at my uni years ago and it didn't seem such a big thing at the time. I'll leave this open for a couple of days, even though it is settled in the hope that some drive-by Azerbaijan editor can add some more references.   scope_creep Talk  09:06, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * "Rector" can mean very different things in different countries. I do not know what it means in Azerbaijan. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:00, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I believe it means the Dean or head of academics for a college or major university division.  // Timothy :: talk  15:08, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep: I think this passes WP:PROF, needs better referencing. More notable than 95% of the athletes and actors on Wikipedia. Since it is a BLP, I removed the material that was unsourced since 2015.  // Timothy :: talk  15:21, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
