The article is about a computer science academic at Carleton University. I am unable to find any significant coverage in independent sources, although this is somewhat expected for academics. I read the criteria at Notability (academics), but I cannot find any that would apply in this case. The person is an associate professor. The h-index according to Google Scholar is 9 which is somewhat on the low side in computer science. Looking though the publications, I am not able to find any in tier 1 conferences/journals (please correct me if I am wrong here) or any one with a significant impact. It seems like the person is an early career academic and perhaps it is too soon to have an article. My apologies for nominating a newly created article for deletion.-- DreamLinker (talk) 20:55, 14 February 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete, WP:TOOSOON. The citation record on Google Scholar is not yet enough (in a high-citation field) for WP:PROF, the best-paper awards are too minor for #C2, and there seems to be nothing else. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:09, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
