Nurul Azim

Non-notable academic. Of the five cited sources, two are brief mentions in versions of a list, two are about a politician who Azim may have treated (the articles don't mention him), and one is a newspaper article written by him. Searches of the usual types found pages published by him and his employers,[1][2] but no significant coverage in independent sources.

Turning to the criteria of WP:PROF, his selected articles are in obscure journals with little impact. I can find no citations of his work. He is a fellow of the Bangladesh College of Physicians and Surgeons, but in contrast to the IEEE (the example used in criterion #3), where fellows must be nominated by others and no more than one in one thousand may be selected per year, one obtains fellowship in the BCPS not by election, but by passing an exam, and about two-thirds of the total membership are fellows.[3] Fellowship in BCPS is not reserved as a highly selective honor.

Comment as per nom, subject fails WP:NPROF. But they might still be notable as army colonel. Colonestarrice (talk) 12:57, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. No sign of WP:NPROF, and I'm not seeing signs of GNG. "Weak" because I could easily be missing sources in Bengali. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:11, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Largely unreferenced, with the references to things that are not notability-establishing. Academia-refs to non-independent sources only (i.e. staff listings). Based on the article, doesn't meet NPROF, has no indicia of notable military service and doesn't appear to meet GNG. -Ljleppan (talk) 10:02, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
