Pernilla Ouis[edit]

A lecturer at a university. The article does not state that she holds a professorial chair, there is no evidence that she has been the subject of any non-trivial independent coverage. I believe this article fails the "professor test" as failing to demonstrate how this academic is in any way distinguishable from any other. This appears to be a "coatrack" article designed to publicise her conversion to Islam and a mention of her in a book on converts to Islam. Cruftbane 12:51, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per your reasoning. This individual does not appear to be notable, and it appears that the presence of this article is a muted example of WP:COATRACK#Some Dude Did It So It Must Be Good. That is to say, the article appears to have been created as a result of the fact of her conversion, rather than because of her unremarkable professional or personal contributions (not to talk down about the woman). While conversions themselves can make a person notable (e.g. Abdul Rahman), there is nothing notable in this respect, either. I don't see any sufficient case for keeping this article.--C.Logan 13:04, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:PROF. As P Ouis, SP Ouis and PDSP Ouis, she's written a handful of articles on Islam. The problem is they've only been cited a total of 7 times, per Google Scholar. There's no evidence to indicate her books are that much notable, either.--Sethacus 15:49, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
