Previously speedied. Speedied again after recreation, unregistered editors removed tags. No evidence of GNG from reliable sources, and no actual reliable sources at all. Appears to be promotional editing, likely from paid editors. JamesG5 (talk) 06:14, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I can only find material written by him and nothing actually written about him so he does not appear to pass WP:GNG Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 06:45, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete A7, borderline G11. No sources found that show this person passing notability guidelines, and a Turkish search didn't result in anything either. ~StyyxTalk? ^-^ 13:26, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - promotional, nothing indicates notabilty.-- Dewritech (talk) 09:26, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Incorrect. GNG can only be met by having sources independent of the subject which none of these keep votes demonstrate. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:59, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Tuxtion That article is something he wrote, and not even about him. ~StyyxTalk? ^-^ 09:36, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
~StyyxTalk? ^-^ that article is something he wrote, and not even about him. I agree with you, the Mentorshp article on BCS[1] is written by the person himself, Adem Yetim, but his articles are published in an academic journal by an institution that provides independent academic accreditation to important universities. Also, as a Fellow of BCS, Yetim should be included in the BCS current fellow list that already exists on Wikipedia. The purpose of writing the article is to add details regarding the Fellow with relevant references, otherwise the Wikipedia list is incomplete and missing details. Creating an entry for this person is an update to the existing Wikipedia BCS Fellow list. Deleting the person from the list will misinform people. My opinion is that we look at the relevant page from this perspective, this was the main reason for me to create the page. It is not intended to promote Yetim, but rather to add missing information.Tuxtion (talk) 19:57, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You are only allowed to vote once. I have struck your duplicate vote again. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:57, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - As a Wikipedia reader, I can say; as per nominator's comments sources provided qualify as "significant coverage" WP:GNG about the subject.212.252.168.253 (talk) 07:54, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Would also note there seem to be no significant keep votes for this article, just SPA accounts and series of SPA IPs with the same geographic location. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 21:17, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. There may be some confusion about the meaning of being a Fellow of a professional society where the term is a membership level and of being a Fellow of other professional societies where the term Fellow is reserved for honorary awards. The BCS Fellow is a membership level for senior people in the profession. A person applies for it themselves; there is an application fee. Fellows pay higher dues. This is different from the American computing societies. Fellow is an honorary award given to a limited number of members. A person does not apply for it but must be nominated by others. There are no fees. Receiving it has no effect on dues. See ACM Fellows and IEEE Fellows. BCS does have an equivalent award, Distinguished Fellow of the British Computer Society.

  • Delete the above makes it clear, this is self promoted. Anyone can call themselves a "Chief Technologist" and even use capital letters to make it sound more grandiose. If he was an actual chief technologist of, say, a major government or a corporation in the Fortune 500, or had an award that is highly selective, that would be a different story.
