The result was Delete. I have not accepted that fn#1 is not a reliable source - it is the official site of a regional government. However, it gives no in-depth coverage, merely naming the subject, hence is proof of existence, not proof of notability.  Spinning Spark  21:56, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Procedural Keep: No reason giving by nominator. §§AnimeshKulkarni (talk) 19:22, 1 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete: While the original opener of the AfD has not provided a rationale, I will: there is no evidence of this person's notability. 2 of the sources provided are not independent (they're the foundation he started and the group he runs). The third (#1 in the article) is not a reliable source. As such, with no independent references, there is no indication that this person meets the notability guidelines for people.

 * Comment: 1) The person's notability has not been established. 2) There is not even one independent, reliable third party source which says he is notable. 3)There is not even a single point or source which can answer "why the person should be on wiki?". So the nomination for deletion as per wiki policy. Thanks. §§bharathiya (talk) Bharathiya 07:42, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
