 * Note. This AfD, Articles for deletion/Maganti Ram Chandran and Articles for deletion/Shankar Maruwada were created on WP:AFC by the IP, so I've moved both pages to their proper location. Steps 1 and 3 have been completed. I have no opinion on the subject — Frankie (talk) 20:50, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. Is not this  a decent source?  I can see why notability might be questioned, and some of the sources ought to be removed, but others appear all right.   dci  &#124;  TALK   02:17, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * The VCCircle link talks about a small startup which the person who this WP article is about founded. Does that make this person notable enough to warrant a full WP article? He is not the CEO or Chairman or founder of a notable company; there is nothing on the article that talks about any notable achievement of the person. There are two articles in major news sources (The Hindu, Times of India) cited in the article which talk about this person returning to Infosys. Do these 2-3 references satisfy the notability condition? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.241.119.224 (talk) 08:58, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd have to read the other two articles you mention, but if this man's departure (or the circumstances of it) made enough waves to justify that kind of coverage, I'd think it would be a start. He has been known to be involved in ventures  that receive some news coverage; he appears to be of indeed slight but still existent notability.   dci  &#124;  TALK   20:45, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep Many sources in the article are self-published, but still there are a couple of reliable independent references. -- Anbu121 ( talk me ) 17:22, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
