Rakesh Mohan Joshi

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Joshi has given quotes for several newspaper articles, but has never been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources per WP:GNG. I found exactly two reviews (from a dubious journal, from the African Journal of Finance and Management) of a textbook (International Marketing) of a textbook with 92 Google Scholar citations, as well as two reviews (1, 2) of that textbook and another textbook (International Business) from a journal for which Joshi was once an editor, and a handful of journal articles by Joshi each with fewer than 4 Google Scholar citations.The two independent reviews are the only thing suggesting anything close to satisfying WP:NAUTHOR / WP:PROF, but the subject still falls pretty short. — MarkH21 (talk) 06:42, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete serves little more than as a vanity page for Joshi and has an incredibly long history of using SPA's for promotional editing. Best, GPL93 (talk) 20:35, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
