Unremarkable university professor- this entire article appears to have been a direct copy from the professor's personal webpage. Sources clearly indicate that the subject of the article is not notable. 4 of the sources given are exactly the same, and on top of that, the sources are unreliable - they are from a university's staff directory as well as their online newspaper.

 * Delete per WP:COPYVIO of this page unless clear evidence is given that the page has been copied with permission and appropriate assignment of copyright, but without prejudice to recreation of an article on the subject that is free of copyright concerns. Using GScholar, the subject's h-index seems to be rather over 30, which is probably slightly too low to unequivocally meet WP:PROF#C1 in this particular field (though it would be enough in most others), even with two (rather heavily co-authored) papers with just over 800 and just under 600 cites. However, the subject seems also to come close enough to some of the other criteria for WP:PROF that it seems more likely than not that he would pass one or more of them. The sources used in the article are less than ideal, but we would generally accept the staff directory as a reliable source for verifying the subject's current employment once notability had been established.
