Asanga Lankathilaka

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Mid-ranking officer killed in action. Appears to have been awarded his country's fourth highest award for gallantry. No real notability. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:32, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete loss is tragic, but being killed in action does not confer notability. The level of decoration for this individual would not confer notability either. Fails WP:GNG. EricSerge (talk) 17:28, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - Mid ranking officer, fails to achieve notability defined by WP:MILPEOPLE.-- obi2canibe talk contr 18:44, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete no sign of notability in the article that I can see. MilborneOne (talk) 17:28, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - per EricSerge, lacks "significant coverage" in WP:RS to be notable per WP:GNG. Given the number of notable officers killed in the event the circumstances appear to be covered elsewhere at any rate. Anotherclown (talk) 09:34, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
