WP:PROF does not apply. &mdash; Finemann (talk) 21:25, 4 August 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment The subject has not published articles with over 10 citations according to Google Scholar. Has not contributed majorly to his field of research. All the references used in the article are from the institute profile or his own personal website. No major coverage about the individual in reliable 3rd party sources (if at all any such coverage exists it does not have any significant coverage about the individual himself). The individual has published a book in two parts according to Google Books. But again this book has only 4 citations according to GScholar. There is a lot of material on the internet regarding this book. This is only due to its popularity among students who use it to prepare for the IIT-JEE. But this book is not mentioned in the actual syllabus of IIT-JEE. Again this book has not been in the syllabus of any major university. And the only two universities which seem to use it in India (Google) are the University of Pune and the Mohanlal Sukhadia University. Clearly this book is not widely used at all. Thus this article does not satisfy WP:PROF in any sense. Vote to delete. &mdash; Finemann (talk) 22:00, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. Congratulations to the nominator on such an extensively researched nomination. I wish others would copy. Delete BLP unless further evidence emerges about the textbook. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:11, 6 August 2011 (UTC).
