Deletion of Shervin Assari

Comment: Unfortunately I should disagree with most points made by Bakerstmd. You mentioned "All assistant professors and even most graduate students and post-docs are the authors of manuscripts and are asked to review articles for journals". They publish and review, right. They do publish, but do they publish 100 PubMed Peer review manuscripts? They do review, but do they review 170 manuscripts for more than 40 journals? Assari has received the outstanding reviewer award from Elsevier. He has been ranked 5th most active peer reviewer of the world. Are you saying Assari's work does not meet criteria for , but the same document says being a Fellow, being on the Board of Directors of important academic organizations, and being an Editor of top journals are some of the criteria. Assari has secured a Fellow status from a prestigious national society (SAPHIR).  In addition, the Research Fellowship awarded to Assari is exclusively limited to the U.S. citizens (see the Cornely Fellowship Eligibility at CRECH, School for Public Health, University of Michigan). He is the only non-U.S. citizen who has received such a prestigious Fellowship. How many "assistant professors" have published 160 peer review manuscripts, have an h index of 18, have been ranked #5 among 30,000 reviewers, and are section editor of multiple journals in PubMed? How many assistant professors vote for the most prestigious epidemiology award in the U.S.?  —&nbsp;Preceding Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned comment added by

Comment: He appears to be a soft-money researcher rather than a tenure-track faculty member, and his citation record is |not yet strong enough for a pass of #C1. Ordinary society memberships are not any special honor and the one society fellowship he lists is of an obscure Iranian society whose standards I'm not familiar with. So I don't think he passes any  criterion. And as the previous comment says, this is written in a highly promotional way that would need severe trimming if it were to be kept
