Mahananda Sapkota
Asserts notability, but Google results aren't promising. Doesn't appear to be notable, parts may be a hoax. Rory 0 96 (block) 21:50, 14 April 2006 (UTC) DHARAN, July 17 (RSS) - The statue of poet and linguist Mahananda Sapkota has been unveiled on the occasion of the 189th Bhanu Jayanti at Inaruwa of Sunsari district. Unveiling the statue, senior litterateur Dr. Narendra Chapagain said the glory of the nation is increased through the honouring of the talents like late Mahananda Sapkota who was a pillar of Nepali language and literature. The statue constructed under the initiative of the Mahanand Memorial Literary Academy at a cost of Rs. 61,000 was prepared by famous sculptor of Itahari Bikram Shri.
 * Weak keep: the subject is very likely notable, but the article seems difficult to verify online, at least using the Latin alphabet. It would be useful if someone could make a search for his name in Nepali. I did find the news item below which indicates notability (it is only in Google's cache, but http://www.kantipuronline.com/ looks like a serious news site). u p p l a n d 06:57, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep seems to be notable. Philately/Personality Series, but no other on line sources found on Google except cache (news about statue, etc). --MaNeMeBasat 13:41, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
