Ankur Luthra

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Subject claims to have founded a charity after becoming a Rhodes Scholar, cites as his source a mention in a Berkeley newspaper. Clearly, the article is not encyclopedic as written (with only those sources), but there may be more to find, so I was uncomfortable with a CSD A7. Delete, pending other opinions.

 * Keep. What I see in searching his name on Google and newslibrary.com indicates there is indeed enough for notability.  Per Xoloz though, the article, as it currently stands, certainly needs enhancement.  I don't have time to go through the references and work on the article just this moment.  But I'll try to get to it when time permits, unless someone beats me to the punch.  Mwelch 01:20, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. I finally came back to work on the article, and in looking closer at the results, it looks the only articles that are substantive in their coverage of him specifically are all local to the Bay Area.  So seems to be locally notable only at this point.  Mwelch 01:00, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. I have added references. He is of quite some notability for his achievements which are quite extraordinary for a 26 year-old. dishant 09:00, 4 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete Agree with Xoloz  Appears to be a bright student but he does not appear to meet Wikipedia guidelines for prominence.  Article originally created and above Keep suggested by Dishant Luthra - a relative, so not a NPOV ?
 * Note: User has been part of an ongoing spat with me on a revert war at Khatri, Malhotra and Luthra. He also assumes that my surname is Luthra without any information whatsoever. I suggest both mine and his vote does not get counted because I am the creator of the article and he has a malicious bias. dishant 02:05, 5 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Weak delete Many (perhaps most) Rhodes scholars become notable, but they do so on t he basis of their further career. His is just beginning. DGG 23:27, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
