Deshpande

 * – ( View AfD View log )

"Deshpande" is just a last name. The article is mostly WP:OR and a list of people with the name. Zuggernaut (talk) 05:00, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep No valid rationale for deletion given. There's a whole category of articles that are "just" a list of people with the name, e.g. List of people with surname Jones.  OR could easily be fixed with a single edit, which I used to do but haven't been able to keep up with lately.  My !vote on this AfD applies as well to all the others you've started.  —  Soap  —  12:53, 9 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep Per Soap's argument and the fact that no policy about notability or sourcing was cited by the nominator. It is not original research that this surname exists and is common. Those facts are quite easily verifiable with census data or something similar. Steven Walling &bull; talk   22:32, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep : The article is notable and makes it easy to understand complex caste and sub-groups of Indian society. Nominator has given no valid reasons in his favor and singled out other Indian articles for AfD like Godbole, Vaidhya, Inamdar, Gokhale etc.Jethwarp (talk) 04:05, 11 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep All last names are notable. There is enough information about it to warrant an article.   D r e a m Focus  03:53, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
