== COI and possible draft for Aldeniz Rashidov ==

Hello. I have a conflict of interest regarding this topic and do not want to create an article directly.

Could an independent editor please advise whether these sources seem sufficient for a draft or a requested article about Aldeniz Rashidov?

Main independent sources:

* BTA, 16 February 2024 — IEEE Senior Member recognition
* BTA, 20 June 2024 — comments on reforms in education
* BTA, 9 February 2026 — public lecture on artificial intelligence
* Gabrovo News, 13 April 2020
* Digital Industry, 24 May 2023
* Selected Engineer.bg articles on AI, education, and research, including:
** 21 June 2023 — dialogue with ChatGPT and AI in science;
** 18 July 2024 — AI algorithms and future generations;
** 10 September 2024 — career orientation in the technical sector

Short neutral draft:
Aldeniz Rashidov is a Bulgarian scholar, professor, university lecturer, and researcher associated with the Technical University of Gabrovo. His professional work is in the fields of artificial intelligence, information systems, and engineering education. In 2024, he received IEEE Senior Member status, and in 2026 BTA reported on his public lecture on artificial intelligence. His work and public positions have also been covered in specialized and regional media.

:Just from <em>these</em>, I'd have to say no.
:There are like 40,000 IEE Senior Members, so while that may be useful in an article, it doesn't really establish notability. Neither do comments or a lecture made ''by'' Rashidov. Nor do articles ''by'' Rashidov. That leaves the Gabrovo News and Digital Industry, but I can't find the content you're referring to, so I have no idea if these constitute significant cover ''of'' Rashidov.
:Now, Rashidov might be notable for other reasons; that would require more research. But I think you're kind of getting notability in the Wikipedia sense not quite right. The idea isn't trying to simply find things Rashidov did or said, the goal is to find reliable sources, independent of Rashidov, that are covering, discussing, describing, or analyzing Rashidov, and not just passing mentions.

::Thank you. That is helpful.
::I understand that the current set of sources may not be enough to establish notability in the Wikipedia sense. I will look for stronger independent sources that discuss Rashidov in more substantial detail, rather than simply quoting him or reporting events.
