Md Akhtaruzzaman

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A paid article tainted by uncertain notability. The assertion of importance in the lead is that he is pro-vice chancellor (administration), in other words one of two deputy vice-chancellors. Criterion #6 of WP:PROF says, "The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post".

No independent sources about him are cited. Searches of the usual types finds plenty of "was present" coverage, a smattering of very brief coverage in connection with elections to the executive committee of the Dhaka University Teachers' Association,[1][2][3] a brief mention in connection with a national high school textbook committee,[4] and the announcement of his being made pro-vice chancellor,[5] presumably from a press release.

If the community believes he's notable, I'm willing to try to clean up the article. If he's not notable, let's delete it. --Worldbruce (talk) 22:00, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per nom. Worldbruce said it all; not notable and promotional. --nafSadh did say 02:42, 20 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
