Hi, In my knowledge all information what I provided is authentic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahmed Al Harrasi (talkcontribs) 08:35, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ahmed Al Harrasi Authentic it may be. It is not referenced, therefore we cannot accept it.
For a living person we have a high standard of referencing. Every substantive fact you assert, especially one that is susceptible to potential challenge, requires a citation with a reference that is about them, and is independent of them, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS, and is significant coverage. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact cited, that meet these tough criteria is likely to make this draft a clear acceptance (0.9 probability). Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the person is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today.
Papers authored by Al Harrasi are not necessarily references. Let me try to explain. If they manufactured vacuum cleaners, the cleaners would be their work. A vacuum cleaner could not be a reference for them, simply because it is the product they make. So it is with research, writings, etc. However, a review of their work by others tends to be a review of them and their methods, so is a reference, as is a peer reviewed paper a reference for their work. You may find WP:ACADEME of some use in seeing how Wikipedia and Academe differ hugely
The huge swathe of publications is useless to WIkipedia, much as it may feel wonderful to see the list here. It needs to be pruned to a small selection. Assuming https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q96014667 to be the same person the accepted article will link that record which will give a full list of all publications FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 08:54, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
