An ostensibly impressive list of references -- but there appears to be *nothing* to support notability -- i.e., no secondary sources written *about* the subject. He certainly doesn't meet WP:PROF -- he is currently doing his PhD: [1]. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 06:59, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Do Not Delete. Notability is evident in the following examples of extensive and externally authenticable sources:

1A - Citation by the PARLIAMENT OF CANADA subject has been cited in a legislative motion in the Parliament of Canada.

1B - World Economic Forum. The World Economic Forum is an international, notable body that provides a biography of the subject

2A - International Journal of Public Administration - Article The IJPA is a peer-reviewed, leading journal in the field of Public Administration. Impartial + external representation of the subject's notability.

2B - Parliamentary Affairs Journal Parliamentary Affairs is a peer-reviewed, leading journal in the field of Legislative Studies. Impartial representation of the subject's notability.

3 - Australia's 50 Top Thinkers, the Conversation Yearbook Book is published by Melbourne University Press. This is a published book that recognises 50 Australian Thinkers including the subject. (see also: [2] )

4 - International Conference: World Congress of Political Science The conference has several thousand attendees and is the most important venue for political science in academia. The subject is clearly notable when their work is cited in a large international venue.

5 - Tax and Transfer Policy Institute: Think Tank Profile in respected Fiscal Policy Think Tank is an external indication of the notability of the subject.

Other examples are also easily available, but these examples are more than sufficient to demonstrate the following point. The subject is notable, the referencing of their notability is extensive and externally authenticable (Parliament of Canada, leading peer-reviewed journals, international conferences, The World Economic Forum, a book published by Melbourne University Press, international think-tanks). Therefore, article is not a reasonable candidate for deletion. --عثمان وقاص چوہان 10:12, 27 February 2017 (UTC) User:Uchohan
