Fails WP:AUTHOR. Subject's thesis in computer science has been cited a handful of times according to the ACM Digital Library. GScholar has some more works, none of which have received any measurable notice. I couldn't find any critical attention to his philosophical work, either; "Walid Touma review" digs up only sites selling his book. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 18:37, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Response: The Science book's 2nd edition has been released in 2012, and several Computer Architecture books have referenced it. The philosophy book has been released 6 months ago, and it needs more time to get the relevant traction. The content flow has been changed significantly to make it less subjective. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abuntf (talk • contribs) 19:02, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The CS book has been cited five times, which in CS terms is next to nothing. For the rest, please see WP:TOOSOON: if a topic hasn't garnered attention, we don't need an article about it. (This nomination is not about the tone, since that can be easily fixed without blowing the article up. It's merely about the encyclopedic importance of the topic, or lack therefore.)

Delete - far too soon (see above), too up and coming, and too new to academia. Bearian (talk) 17:23, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Maybe this person will be notable in a few years, and the article can be re-created later. Bearian (talk) 17:24, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Unreferenced BLP, fails WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR. As with Qwertyus, I was unable to find reliable sources that would establish notability. Shanata (talk) 21:15, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
