P. C. Chandawat

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article was deleted as an expired prod in late August. Since then, it has been recreated at least twice, as an article under this name and another under P.C . Chandawat (note the spacing before and after the initials). He does not seem to meet WP:PROF because there are no independent sources other than papers and class materials produced by every other professor and historian. However, I'm not from India, and other voices should be heard. Krakatoa Katie  06:56, 4 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete as nominator. - Krakatoa  Katie  06:56, 4 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - It reads as a CV rather than as an encyclopaedic article. It's either self-penned of possibly a family member given the info in the article. Lots of assertions but nothing that meets WP:BIO. --WebHamster 11:27, 4 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletions.   —David Eppstein 15:12, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak delete Yes every professor writes papers, including the notable ones: and the question of notability is the importance of those papers. In this case, they are not articles in peer-reviewed journals, but just conference papers, and they alone don;'t make for notability. Sufficiently important published work does make for notability.

 * Comment - I wonder if they call him "Mac" for short? --WebHamster 01:09, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of notability for him or his works Corpx 02:50, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I have read one of his books on the History of Bharatpur State "Maharaja Surajmal Aur Unka Yuga (1745-1763 A.D.)" and found very informative and useful. He is author of repute. His works on compilation on the history of Rajasthan, about which very little work has been done, are worth noting. He is a notable person. I recommend to keep. --burdak 12:03, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Can you find us any reviews or other references to them? --they might well demonstrate the importance objectively. DGG (talk) 13:38, 5 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Please see the Wiki page of "Suraj Mal of Bharatpur" for his contribution. I recommend to keep. --shrimali 7 September 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shrimali (talk • contribs) 16:25, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
