Comment: Subject may be notable (see WP:NPROF) but there are insufficient citations showing significant coverage in reliable, independent, secondary sources (see WP:RS) - too much of the currently cited material is sourced from employing institutions associated with the subject). Tone is too much like a resume or Linkedin profile. Paul W (talk) 21:31, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Needs to be still more neutral and factual in tone:
"instrumental in establishing..."
,"meticulously analysed"
,"prominently featured"
– whose words are all these peacock terms?Also, this reads like a CV/resume. We don't need to know every single training course he's been on, or every minor award he's received. Focus on the things that make him notable. DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:01, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
Comment: Suggested improvements:1. The use of tables is not per MOS, please turn into lists instead.2. Remove all external links from body text. With the exception of one optional link in the infobox, there should be no external links before the 'References' section.3. Remove boldface from the 'Awards' section. Bold should not be used to highlight items.4. Section headings should be in *Sentence case*, not *Title Case*.-- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:52, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
Comment: I'm not sure if this passes NACADEMIC or not but the tone needs to be more neutral. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 04:38, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
