Speedy deletion of Raghavendra Gadagkar
A tag has been placed on Raghavendra Gadagkar requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement [of http://ces.iisc.ernet.in/hpg/ragh/cv/]. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Notability information
Please add information to Raghavendra Gadagkar indicating his notability. As it is, it is eligible for speedy deletion both because it doesn't have any content other than the infobox and because it doesn't indicate the importance or significance of the subject of the article. I am holding off on nominating it for deletion at the moment because you are still improving it, but others could still do so. Regards, Philosopher Let us reason together. 20:56, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
