The result was Delete - the usual WP:N - no independent sources means nothing to write an article from, appears to be a private individual. Wily D 08:24, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

As far as I can see, the subject doesn't meet WP:AUTHOR or WP:ACADEMIC. John Vandenberg (chat) 09:23, 8 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment Her book has been quoted/used in several other education books and articles,, . Not sure if that's enough, frankly, but I'd suggest that anyone interested in keeping this article incorporate some of these references into it. Voceditenore (talk) 10:36, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep - notable: (1) The founder and curator of TEDxEast. Launched in May 2009, and one of the first TEDx events in the U.S. (2)Per WP:AUTHOR: She has been quoted by author of at least four other books. Yogesh Khandke (talk) 03:08, 14 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep : Agreed with Yogesh Khandke . — Preceding unsigned comment added by AbhiSuryawanshi (talk • contribs) 05:56, 23 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete She fails WP:BIO for lack of substantial (or basically any) coverage at Google News Archive, where I found only passing mentions and press releases. There was no news coverage at all of her supposedly "bestselling" book, which also had minimal citations at Google Scholar. --MelanieN (talk) 21:29, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete She's written a niche book published by a small educational publisher, and it doesn't seem to have got any reviews outside of education-related blogs. It's possible that a trawl of non-free/not-online education-related sources may turn up more, but I'd expect to have found any big reviews in major scholarly journals if they existed.  As for founding one of TED's seemingly-endless series of sub-ventures, I don't think that demonstrates notability, not least because TEDxEast isn't mentioned anywhere else on Wikipedia. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:10, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:BIO. No sign of notability. Just because she is the founder of TEDxEast, doesn't mean it needs to be kept. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 08:02, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
