Irfan Alam

I initially tagged this for G11 given its former state before I nominated it but considering it was somewhat better before but still promotional and unacceptable, here we are. Searches apparently found some links with "Irfan Alam India" at Books, browsers and WP:INDAFD but nothing solidly better. Notifying the only still considerably active tagger.

 * Delete Notability just isn't being demonstrated here. The existing article is so promotional sounding I dont know that its worth saving if notability could be demonstrated. We see a lot biographical articles on "entrepreneurs" in the Draft space lacking in references to reliable 3rd party sources, this is no different.  Claims here just aren't backed up and appear to be taken from the subject's Linked In page (not a reliable souce). The only reference in the awards and recognition section is related to reality show.  Those which might help establish notability such as Business World’s “Most Promising Entrepreneur Award” are not footnoted and I'm having difficulty finding refs to support them.  I did move the economic times article citation to a more appropriate place in the article.
 * Delete - Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage to show that it passes WP:GNG. Would also qualify for deletion as per WP:DEL4.  Onel 5969  TT me 03:34, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
