unable to completely satisfy WP:A7. Still I believe it should be given a fair chance. So I removed the speedy deletion tag and added the article for discussion here. Rafaelgriffin (talk) 12:21, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
 * speedy delete This article was obviously written by someone with very little knowledge of how wikipedia works, as shown in their non-credible references and improper citation, which leads me to believe that it was written be the subject or another primary source who is close to the subject. Sure, someone else could clean up the article, but this is not worth doing if notability cannot be established.  Simply having their name appear on some websites may determine the subject exists, but it does not establish notability.  I feel like a tourist (talk) 14:14, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep - The very first line of the article states that he is the Police Commissioner for Gurgaon and the article included an interview in the Hindustan Times which is a credible enough assertion of notability that a speedy deletion is not appropriate. His position as police commissioner is of sufficient note that the Times of India covered his hospitalisation.  His appointment as commissioner was covered with a profile about him as well.  The article surely needs help, but it is far from irredeemable so deletion is not an appropriate action. -- Whpq (talk) 17:52, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep and wikify I agree that his position as police commissioner gives him notability, but this article does need a lot of help. PaintedCarpet (talk) 22:59, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
