Talk:List of scientists from the Middle East
Persons temporarily removed from the list, because ... change
- I can not see that the article about him says that he is a scientist (and I did not see such info at wiki English).
- I have removed "Tariq Aziz (1936-2015), diplomat" from the list. Sju hav (talk) 18:35, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- He held a bachelor of English language, from Baghdad University; other issues aside,he served as a (senior) member of parliament/the regime of Saddam Hussein, for 1983-1991: Minister for foreign affairs, 1979-2003 Vice prime minister; that makes almost 25 years service as a politician. Besides he was active as a journalist, and spent some time in jail. As I read you, it means that anyone calling him/herself a journalist can not be listed? --Eptalon (talk) 19:08, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- If there is consensus here that he was a scientist, then feel free to add him to the list. Sju hav (talk) 19:58, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

I am not particularly keen of adding him, all I said: Much like Butros Ghali, or Kofi Anan, he is one of the cases where we already have an article about the person. As I see it now, we will likely need to create articles of scientits from this region of the world; so we had better get to work... --Eptalon (talk) 20:04, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
Notability not shown change
- Samira Islam, Pharmacology
- Mohammed Suroor Sabban,1898-1971, Economics
- Muhammed Al-Jasser, Economics"

- en:Samira Islam, as to Mrs Bajhajiri: 39 publications, in scientific journals? - not notable? I don't konw you background, but I don't think getting published in journals such as The Lancet is easy.. (see: here). These people might not have an article on SEWP yet, but deducting from there they are not notable or not a scientist is clearly wrong.--Eptalon (talk) 20:17, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- For your info en:The_Lancet is one of the oldest medical journals. It is number two by impact factor, after en:The New England Journal of Medicine, the British Medical journal is number 4 or so. Anyway: getting published in this journal is a sign of notability. --Eptalon (talk) 20:28, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- "Samira Islam, Pharmacology"
- "Samira Islam - the first person from Saudi Arabia to become a full professor in pharmacology"[1]"
"Pharmacology" did not show notability.
I have now written about her being the first ... from Saudi-Arabia. That text is now part of the "... from the Middle East" article.
Now notability is shown. Sju hav (talk) 12:42, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Eptalon - The article does not show notability, in my view. Please feel free to add (in this article, and/or the article about her) that she has written one or more articles for the Lancet.
- From time to time, articles get deleted, because they do not tell about what is notable, (and any notability remains "hidden in [[references/sources").
- Not sure if en-wiki has ever deleted an article about a person who had one (or more) articles accepted by the Lancet.
- In some circumstances, simple-wiki might consider to delete articles about a person who has written (at least one article) for the Lancet.
- Not sure what those circumstances might be. Sju hav (talk) 13:14, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
Notability is not: having a job and "having research centered" on something change
"... is a ... chemist. She is a medical scientist and educator presently working as a professor of clinical biochemistry and clinical nutrition at the faculty of medicine at ... University ... . Her research centers on diet, lifestyle and chronic diseases.[2]"
- Please move the current article from main space to user space; or ask for the article to be deleted (if anyone agrees that notability is not showing).
- The latest article version that I have seen, is [1]. Sju hav (talk) 12:35, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
- Moved to [2]. Sju hav (talk) 11:18, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
