Bamidele Ojo

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Does not appear to meet WP:PROF, h-index of just 4. [1] There is also little to no coverage in reliable independent sources that would enable Ojo to pass WP:GNG. He doesn't seem to have won any awards that would allow him to meet WP:PROF either, and while Google Books has some results, they are just parts of books he has written and so are not independent sources, meaning they don't make him notable.

Delete Being a Fulbright scholar is nice but it isn't a guarantee of notability. The article has no independent references for him. 131.118.229.17 (talk) 00:19, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I tried to convince myself that we should keep this one, but the more I dug, the less convincing it became. His web site that the university boasts "Ranker" ranks (which are essentially social engineering contests), and his place as a "Notable alum" on the WP Fulbright Program page. He is indeed listed there, and as we delete this page we should also delete his entry on that one. If, for some reason, this article is kept, all but a few sentences of the "publications" and the "awards, etc." sections. There is no reason to list every publication of a professor (they SHOULD have many), and other than the Fulbright and perhaps his appointment to the ILO delegation, the rest is his failure to get elected... repeatedly.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
