Keep Since his career is basicly pre-internet it will be much harder to find. However I did find a reference quite easily, the claims are significant, so this person will easily pass WP:PROF, and you could be sure there will be more references in newspapers and other publications.

~~Comment>~~ Keep. Certainly does not pass WP:Prof#C1 on basis of GS research citations. May pass WP:Politician or WP:Prof#C3 . Xxanthippe (talk) 01:40, 29 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Keep: "President of Pakistan Academy of Sciences for two terms during 1978-84 and 1985-88" definitely suggests notability. There's an obit published in Proceedings of the Pakistan Academy of Sciences. It cannot be fully viewed, but its presence in the publications confirms his role in the academy, and the overall significance of Kazi's career. I adjusted the lead to make notability clearer.

Keep as the Academy position is enough. SwisterTwister talk 02:12, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I agree that his position as president of the Pakistan Academy of Sciences establishes notability. Smmurphy^(Talk) 21:05, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
