He is better known as an activist for Uyghur causes rather than as an academic, so  is the wrong criteria here. Sources in Chinese - http://news.sina.com/c/sd/2009-07-15/094018226088.shtml (in a substantial section that describes him as a dangerous separatist), Uyghur http://www.meripet.com/2015/20151010_erkin_sidiq_birnchi_kitab.pdf (biography), and English  https://laist.com/2020/05/08/meet_the_nasa_engineer_fighting_for_his_uighur_homeland_in_china.php.  Most of the other sources in various languages give short but sometimes more substantial quotes from him - https://www.vice.com/fr/article/bv8m3q/la-chine-vend-les-organes-halal-de-ses-prisonniers-ouigours-richeshttps://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/05/world/asia/china-xinjiang-uighur-intellectuals.htmlhttps://www.news.com.au/world/asia/are-they-sick-are-they-dead-what-really-happened-to-chinas-missing-uighur-people/news-story/f31a4e17177689f6c5d720d01d07df29https://www.alquds.co.uk/%D9%85%D8%AC%D9%84%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B5%D9%8A%D9%86-%D8%AA%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%B9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B9%D8%B6%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AD%D9%84%D8%A7%D9%84-%D9%84%D8%B3%D8%AC/https://bylinetimes.com/2020/01/24/chinas-harvesting-of-uyghur-organs-gets-darker/, which collectively indicate some worldwide interest in his activity and therefore some degree of notability. Worth keeping as a voice for a victimised minority
