Delete- Requested deletion but got bounced back by admins. Just because someone has citations does not make them notable. The author has not used the references properly to justify that this person has done anything deserving of this article.Zzaffuto118 (talk) 19:55, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Subject does not satisfy the requirements of WP:ACADEMIC or WP:BIO at this time. A search of Google Scholar finds a few publications but not enough to establish her as a leader in her field. Google News archive finds only an entertainment writer by the same name. Possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON. --MelanieN (talk) 21:08, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment to nominator: was it really necessary to request speedy-deletion of this article two minutes after it was created? I personally hate to see that kind of hair-trigger response to a new article, without giving the creator any time at all to improve it. --MelanieN (talk) 21:12, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Comment to AKS & Zzaffuto118 - please check all the references, these are credible international journal references for physicians including NIH- most importantly they are notable and independent- this article absolutely should not be deleted. Also, new references were added. kballal1 (talk)


 * Dear kballal 1; please refrain from removing deletion and other maintenance tags from the article. Discussion is still open on this page. AKS (talk) 06:05, 16 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete as another article by similar name Maithili Rao MD was created and it was deleted on 4th Jan 2012. AKS (talk) 06:08, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Note that the previous article was speedily deleted as it contained no credible claim of importance. This article is not (eactly) the same, and now contains enough of a claim to importance that it should go through the normal AFD process. As a result, the previous deletion has no particualr bearing on this discussion. Franamax (talk) 06:22, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
