Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaafar Aksikas
One publication without citations listed in the Web of Science. Assistant professor at Columbia College in Chicago (NOT Columbia University, which is a much more prestigious institution). According to http://www.colum.edu/Academics/Humanities_History_and_Social_Science/faculty/Jaafar_Aksikas.php his homepage, he obtained his PhD only in 2005. It doesn't help that the Dutch title of his "fieldwork project" contains a typo and is ungrammatical. As stated above by Hqb, Aksikas is editor in chief of a journal, but this is mainly a local Columbia journal, geared towards "undergraduate students, graduate students, and emerging scholars". Only 2 issues published, so the journal (and its editorship) are not notable yet (even though this seems to be a laudable initiative). No indication that the subject at this point fulfills the criteria for notability under either  or . Despite the almost frivolous nom, I therefore have to come down on the side of delete, without prejudice for recreation once the subject meets notability criteria
