 * Weak-Keep - It looks like the last AfD for this article was under the Notability (academics) guidelines. I am not sure that THAT article looked like but from the comments at AfD the article was not in good shape. This article seems to be written to standards and there are plenty of citations to support his academic works. --MMMMadManiac (talk) 20:12, 19 July 2012 (UTC)


 * yes there are a lot of links but I think all of those books are self-published. I haven't found anything written about the books Bhny (talk) 21:00, 19 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete The subject has published many books and the publishers list and promote them, as their business model requires. The subject's university recognition of the subject extends to listing his name and email only. There is no sign of him being on any editorial boards. His personal website contains a list of "recognitions"; two of them are referenced, one is link dead and one was awarded by a a publisher of his (i.e. a non-notable in-house award). In short nothing approaching notability. Having said that there may be an entire constellation of references in Spanish that I'm not seeing because I don't speak Spanish. If these are added to the article, feel free to ping my talk page. Stuartyeates (talk) 22:16, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per G4, recreation of a page deleted per AfD. Barring that, delete as the the subject fails PROF or GNG (notwithstanding Guillaume2303's note at WP:Articles for deletion/Rajagopal (professor) that the professor is the editor of a minor journal). Note, too, that the "citations" are mostly Prof. Rajagopal's own work or else university directories listing him. Cnilep (talk) 03:59, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
