The result was speedy delete G12, copyvio. As I wrote in the log entry, "the information is so short and factual that one might reasonably expect some overlap even for a freshly-written summary of the same information, but here the similarities go well past that level of overlap into copyvio territory." —David Eppstein (talk) 07:02, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The tone of the article makes it read like a promotional piece, CV, or resume instead of a dispassionate biography. Previous users removed unsubstantiated content, as well as text described as puffery. The article does not contain much besides his education, which is not notable.
