The article was tagged notability but was removed by the article creator. It is likely that it will be deproded so I put this into AFD. There is not enough reliable sources found when performing WP:BEFORE. The only cited reliable source in the article does not address the subject directly so it doesn't meet WP:GNG. Meets none of the criterion listed at WP:PROF or WP:BIO Sun8908Talk 05:18, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The Zhang Milin described here, of Tsinghua University, appears to be the one described by this Google Scholar profile and this IEEE profile. She should not be confused with the Zhang Milin of Harbin Engineering University who (as part of a large group of authors) has written heavily cited publications on graphene supercapacitors. There is no evidence that the nominator found any of this in WP:BEFORE, but regardless, I don't think she passes WP:PROF — she has citation counts on a good track, but not yet at the level of impact required for #C1, and the other criteria appear very unlikely. There's a big language barrier for me to search for sources in Chinese, though, so if someone who can read Chinese turns up evidence of WP:GNG-type notability instead, I'm open to changing my mind. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:25, 5 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
