Insufficient coverage in reliable sources and academic literature in general, does not meet WP:GNG. The concept appears to have been pioneered in this paper, which according to Google Scholar has been cited 5 times. Based on the content of the article and the abstracts of the relevant papers, it is unclear whether the term "Fawzal number" has ever actually been used outside of wikipedia, even in the papers that developed the concept. It also appears very likely that the initial editor has a conflict of interest, seeing as their username is "Fawzala", and the author of the papers about this concept is A. Fawzal. Comments in edit summaries would appear to indicate that this concept is part of their graduate thesis, which hasn't even been defended yet. Maybe this will one day be the cornerstone of fan cooling theory, but for now it appears to be much WP:TOOSOON. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 04:11, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
