Fails WP:NBIO and WP:NACADEMICS: The government award he received was only awarded twice (2010 and 2015) and is not a well-known and significant award or honor by any means ( WP:ANYBIO). The person is an editor-in-chief of Biofuel Research Journal but this certainly is not any major, well-established academic journal as required by NACADEMICS - see deletion discussion. No other claims to notability or significance are there in the article.
Additionally, worth noting that the article has already been deleted once as a result of AfD, with a few "keep" !votes added then by a number of single-purpose accounts. The current creator, User:Meisam tab, was recently investigated for COI [1] where he claimed not to be Meisam Tabatabaei, and requested user rename. All this gives an impression of attempts to game the system. — kashmiri TALK 09:18, 18 June 2016 (UTC) — kashmiri TALK 09:18, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

- Comment. The earlier AfD was nearly 7 years ago, and the deleted article didn't include the claims in the present one of being editor in chief of a journal and president of a society, which (if either is significant, something I haven't ascertained) could be enough to pass WP:PROF. So I think we should hold a full AfD rather than going for a G4 speedy deletion. — David Eppstein ( talk) 05:24, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- Delete (provisional). A GS h-index of 20 is borderline for a well-cited field. I am suspicious about the GS citation pattern, which looks like a walled-garden of group self-citations. Xxanthippe ( talk) 00:08, 20 June 2016 (UTC).
