Praveen kumar gorakavi

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Autobiographical article about a student in India. Some of the claims here are sourced, but many are not; more importantly, though, the significance of the claims isn't made clear. Most of the "inventions" listed don't have readily searchable names (the one which did ("VASCAMODE") yielded zero related Google hits besides this article), and news coverage of him appears to have been limited to passing "human interest" stories.

 * Delete While there are two secondary sources, that suggest some notability, they are essentially soft-news human interest pieces about a local-school-kid doing good; note the articles are published in the newspaper'ps Young World supplement, which is directed at a younger audience. Most of the article content is unsourced, vague, and frankly exaggerated/dubious. Abecedare (talk) 00:57, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete badly written + seems to be 'auto'biography + not referenced. Also, such little 'genius'es usually gets a lot of local media coverage, but hardly contribute anything notable so that an encyclopedic article is worthy for them. His current contributions are not worthy enough.--GDibyendu (talk) 17:06, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as notability is not established due to lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. Also appears to have been written by the subject. Adam Zel (talk) 14:42, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Not notable.--E8 (talk) 16:31, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
