Deletion of Talat Waseem

Comment: The citation record for his work, while not at all bad, does not rise to the level of passing  #1, and there seems to be no other plausible reason for keeping the article. And, even for an academic of this level, the amount of sourceable information we can find about him other than "he wrote these papers" seems to be very minimal

Comment: The citation record though may not rise to the 'conventional' level of passing  #1, the references point towards significant contribution of Dr. Waseem to ghrelin research. A person writing editorial in Surgical Oncology and presenting 3 papers at the highest level ghrelin forum at age of 32 must be special. Secondary source referencing however needs improvement.  —Preceding Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned comment added by

Comment: Even if he had been the first or last author on his most-cited articles, that would not be enough to meet  #1 in lmy eyes

Comment: There are two responses to the above remarks. 1/ WP|OTHERCRAPEXISTS. 2/ We are not determining here whether Dr. Waseem is "deserving" or not, just whether he is notable in the |Wikipedia sense. It is a (perhaps unfortunate) fact of life that entertainers like Maria frequently appear on television, are interviewed in newspapers, and are know by thousands of people, whereas deserving hard-working scientists remain obscure. We just have to live with it, though

Comment: A few reasonably well cited papers, GoogleScholar gives h-index about 5, not enough to indicate  notability on the basis of citability of his work. Nothing else in the record indicates academic notability on other grounds (no significant awards, journal editorships, etc, listed in the article). The article does not give any dates for his education and employment history, but at age 32 not likely to be far beyond the postdoc stage
