Shamsun Nahar Khan

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

An associate professor of pharmaceutical science, whose name is on 35+ journal articles, although never as lead author. The most cited of those articles, according to Google Scholar, has been cited 72 times. Four have been cited at least 35 times each. In some fields that would be excellent, but is modest, I believe, for pharmaceutical chemistry. It's an order of magnitude below the citation figures for the lead authors on some of those articles, such as Atta-ur-Rahman (chemist) and Muhammad Iqbal Choudhary. Her list of scholarships, fellowships, and awards is better than none, but not highly prestigious.

The cited sources are the university where she teaches and a blog self-published by a third party (so not a reliable source for facts about her), plus two sources that appear irrelevant - they don't mention her. A relatively junior academic, who at this time does not meet WP:GNG or WP:PROF. Worldbruce (talk) 21:37, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
