 * Strong Delete: NN army officer, notability not established. Possibly a vanity entry. --Ragib (talk) 00:51, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete: as a major general, the subject would possibly pass WP:MILPEOPLE (please note, this is not a binding policy though), however, there is not enough biographical to determine this. I've done a few internet searches and couldn't sift through the numerous hits I got for other similarly named individuals. Given that there are no sources then, I feel it fails WP:GNG. Finally, it is a completely unreferenced BLP, and thus unless a reliable source can be added, I feel it should be deleted. Happy to re-evaluate if the author is able to provide some sourcing that is verifiable. I would even accept on good faith citations to offline paper sources so long as they can be verified as existing (ISBNs, ISSNs etc) and page numbers are provided. — AustralianRupert (talk) 13:23, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
