Bio of an Iraqi professor translated from ar.wiki, where there are sources. These focus on the receipt of a minor award. One is an interview and only one looks like a decent piece of coverage. Overall there is nothing here to suggest a pass of WP:NPROF. He only obtained his doctorate in 2005 and one of the only solid claims in the Arabic article is that he has supervised about sixty theses, which is just kind of the day job. The rest is vague and fluffy. There is already a version of this article in draft space. A BEFORE search brings up copies of his books and interviews but no in depth third party coverage.

I support deletion; I am the editor who recently removed puffery, excessive detail, etc, and the actual substance remaining amounts to the fact that he is a professor, which in itself does not constitute notability. UrielAcosta
