Article was kept in 2007 on the basis of the references, but they all are the usual sort of PR or mentions. He has accomplished nothing appropriate for covering in an encyclopedia. The entire article is a list of unsuccessful inventions--and unsourced claims for a few which may have been accepted.  DGG ( talk ) 04:11, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep, but needs improvement. The article's subject meets basic notability by virtue of the sources cited in the article. The Times of India, Hindustan Times, Telegraph, and Gulf News seem like they should qualify as "multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject" and the pieces don't look like PR fluff to me. Regardless of whether the subject has actually accomplished anything or not, he has attracted sufficient attention from reliable sources to meet notability requirements.

 * Keep Passes WP:GNG. Sources mentioned in RS are reliable. Accesscrawl (talk) 11:52, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Sources certainly seem to be reliable, independent as well as meeting Sig Cov - I wouldn't say they were mentions. GNG wouldn't specifically require success of his inventions to be included. Nosebagbear (talk) 12:58, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
