Claims of notability are simply not born out by Google. Significantly, Google Scholar shows virtually no trace of him. His books do not appear to be cited. While it is hoped that he chooses to remain involved in WP in his area of expertise, he does not meet WP:BIO at this time. Or am I missing something?

 * Delete as not notable; no second party sources and publications are not of note: though called books they are informational booklets, likely self published.Novangelis (talk) 04:11, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. I think this is very well-meaning subject, but he simply does not appear to be notable. If the clinic and/or program is notable, then he might gain notability from being the director, but they do not appear notable either. Singularity42 (talk) 05:03, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Few references  IShadowed  ✰  06:52, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete.* If Rana and his projects acquire notability at a later time, editors other than coi spas (see talk page) may write encyclopedic articles about them.  — Athaenara  ✉  20:33, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Actually, the talk page is just raising the history, and that there are related articles up for deletion. There are currently three AfDs going on: this one, one regarding the subject's publications, and one regarding the subject's program and clinic. Singularity42 (talk) 17:51, 2 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - This guy seems like a wonderful person but I can't find anything to suggest he meets notability. Shame though. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 15:29, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
