Contested BLPPROD without adding sources. Non-notable poet. A single reference in GHits (Chandigarh Tribune) out of 6 results, single GNews hit (passing mention in Chandigarh Tribune), single GBooks hit (a transcript of papers presented at a folklore conference), no GScholar hits. Fails WP:GNG, WP:ACADEMIC, and WP:AUTHOR. GregJackP (talk) 15:40, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. Unsourced and no evidence of notability from web searches, plus apparent WP:AUTOBIO. My reading of WP:BLPPROD is that you're not allowed to remove the prod blp template without adding sources and the nominator could have just reinstated it instead of bringing it to AfD.

 * Comment - that's my view too, but there apparently is a difference of opinion about that among both editors and admins. So since there is such disagreement, it is easier to bring it to an AfD.  I'm not inclined to get into an ongoing edit war over a BLPPROD, though I will state that if it is just like a PROD, that can be contested by anyone without adding references, it is pretty worthless.
