No notability. VagaboundWind (talk) 11:36, 24 May 2015 (UTC)


 * - I think is odd and bizarre for the to simultaneously nominates article for deletion per WP:CSD and through WP:AfD. I remind the nominator that A7 does not applies to articles with claim of significance even if the claim is unsupported by reliable sources. Thanks! Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 20:03, 24 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep: clearly meet WP:BASIC. I found 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 to mention few. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 20:03, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment : I personally know him he was our principal in my college and my uncles Basketball playmate. I know him very well, and i wonder why he has a biographical article in Wikipedia, yes his name was in the newses some times, it's because he is the principal of one of the India's historical and 3rd biggest college in South India, which got many countless acheivements and recognitions and what not. So every news reports about the college got a mention for principal (you can check that). Is this made him a wikipedia article?. Someone fooled someone.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment "what makes him notable?". He has been the principal of two schools/colleges.  While at each, he has promoted agricultural improvement.  I would question whether that is enough to make him notable. but I do not really know.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:16, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete : Then there should be many wiki articles about a lot of unimportant persons who was principal of more than one colleges. And i am a person who know him. VagaboundWind (talk) 09:50, 1 June 2015 (UTC) Blocked sockpuppet.  Nakon  21:33, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep College President, that alone makes him a keeper. But also because there is lots of RS coverage of him and his career.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:07, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - Being a principle to some school doesn't mean you get an article - I can't find any shred of notability so Delete it. – Davey 2010 Talk 01:22, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep per sources. Meets WP:BASIC.--Antigng (talk) 11:23, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - The article clearly satisfies WP:BASIC. The nominator himself has mentioned that "he is the principal of one of the India's historical and 3rd biggest college in South India" which itself is a reason to keep the page. Moreover, the given sources have exclusive articles on the person which clearly states that he is a popular environmentalist and social activist. Achayan (talk) 13:20, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
