Falgun Rathod

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails WP:NBIO. Sources are weaker than they first appear:
 * The Hacker News doesn't appear reliable. (Not to be confused with Hacker News, although The Hacker News's favicon is obviously derivative, which is... sketchy.)
 * Silicon India also doesn't appear reliable, and the mention is just a listicle.
 * Pentest looks borderline to me, and may accept user submitted content. Regardless, the specific claim that he was the first Indian on the cover couldn't be verified.
 * The India Today source is reliable, but it provides no specific information about Rathod at all. It lists him as one of several "famous personalities" in a profile of ethical hacking as an "offbeat career".

 * Delete and I had actually speedied this in April but it was removed with absolutely no explanations which is typical; examining this simply found nothing convincingly better at all. I frankly would've even PRODed sooner myself but I was not interested if it was simply going to be removed also....at least we have G4 now for the future.

 * That's why I went with the AFD. From the editing history it seemed like a prod was just delaying the inevitable. Grayfell (talk) 02:08, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:SNOW - there is not even an allegation of notability ("known"?!), much less real evidence of notability. Bearian (talk) 21:15, 28 July 2016 (UTC)
