Ajoy Ghose

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Fails WP:N. Main claim to notability is past president of Indian Institution of Engineers. Citation to support his position as "Director of the Central Mine Planning and Design Institute of India" has no mention of him. Article has been tagged for multiple issues, including inadequate sourcing and lack of notability, for three months. PROD tag removed with little improvement one month ago.

 * Keep per WP:PROF criteria 6 (president of Institution of Engineers) and 3 (fellow of Indian National Academy of Engineering). Phil Bridger (talk) 12:03, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - His status as fellow of Indian National Academy of Engineering is not confirmed by the source cited in the article. Cresix (talk) 18:03, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes it is, and this source, which is also in the article, confirms that he received an award for which only fellows are eligible, and would qualify for WP:PROF criterion 2 as a prestigious national award. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:05, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not necessarily saying the information is inaccurate. And please correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears to me that the source used in the section stating "He is a Fellow of the Indian National Academy of Engineering" cites cmpdi.co.in, which says nothing about Ghose. That's why I placed an fv tag on it. This may simply be a matter of adding the right source to the right place. If so, the problems will then be solved. Thanks for clarifying.

 * Keep. Not much on GS but presidency and fellowships give a keep. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:15, 2 October 2010 (UTC).

 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:26, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:PROF and possibly also C6. I added the NAE source found by Phil Bridger. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:45, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep, per Phil Bridger. Enough here to pass WP:PROF. Nsk92 (talk) 18:54, 14 October 2010 (UTC)
