Hirdesh bhardwaj

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

An author who has published his own book on PHP. No evidence of any notability, the refs are advertisements for his book plus his own web-site. Fails WP:GNG by a long way. Could possibly have been a speedy delete.  Velella  Velella Talk 08:37, 4 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - This looks a lot like a promo piece. The author is a new account whose only contributions have been to this article and defending it from deletion. It lists his various public profiles and is full of links to his works. There are no sources listed. The content consists of basically a resume for the subject. The only sources I can find for the subject are his own public profiles. Also, two additional new editors have made small additions to the article, the only content that they have contributed as well. This looks like Sock puppetry.

 * Delete: article appears to have been created as promo by subject himself or a friend; notability is a joke. Quis separabit?  20:16, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete -- promotional article and the subject lacks notability. K.e.coffman (talk) 21:13, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - The article reads purely promotional tone and also lacks notability as per nominator and previous reviewers. Regards,  KC Velaga  ✉  15:22, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
