Doesn't show any notability for the person. Poorly written. The man himself isn't notable, so I say Delete. IslaamMaged126 (talk) 12:12, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

I fully agree. Clearly the page is being used for some kind of personal vendetta. There is nothing useful or informative on the page, nor is Banker himself worth such debate and arguments. Please Delete. ashwinblake

 * Keep. A Google News search shows 9 years of continuous WP:RS coverage in India and abroad. • Gene93k (talk) 14:16, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. Annamonckton (talk) 14:56, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep Poorly written is a nonarguement for deletion. Notability is established by list of books published, including several that are wikilinked and are seperate articles already. AFD sounds fishy.  Pharmboy (talk) 15:28, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Banker is a notable Indian writer both for the volume and visibility of his work.
