No indication of notability. Written like a Resume and initial edit summary indicates it was originally speedy deleted for advertising. Only references are directory entries rather than significant coverage. Google searches not finding significant coverage. noq (talk) 20:34, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Fails WP:GNG - sources are directories only, including the US News entry. Wikipedia is not a CV. ScrpIronIV 18:20, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as nothing at all for any applicable notability and improvements, simply not convincing. Notifying DGG for analysis. SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete Uncertain We could delete as promotional , but he is actually somewhat notable as an expert under WP:PROF based on citations: 338, 102, 69, 61, 58 .... all in first rate specialty journals, most where's he's clearly the main author. I am not going to rewrite, but if someone does the article is fixable. The first step in evaluating an academic is to look in Google Scholar, and anyone can do it.

  • Delete. I'm not convinced that the notability here goes beyond writing a good many papers that were published in academic journals, and WP:PROF tells us that this criterion alone is not sufficient for meeting its notability guidelines. Two comments about the Google Scholar results. First, there are several academics whose names are "Nauman Chaudhry", some of whom also share the same middle initial as the subject here. Of the five papers cited by User:DGG, only three are by the subject. Second, the most widely-cited paper on the list (the one with 338 citations) is not one for which the subject was a primary author. NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:50, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You're right about that one. DGG ( talk ) 04:18, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
