Ram Nath Kak
On 5 Jan, two members of this person's extended family were nominated for deletion. They were both deleted. (See VfD/Neeraj Kak and VfD/Lily Patir Kak. While unlinking those articles, I found this.  Since these articles appear to have been entered as a batch by someone who may not have been familiar with our recommended criteria for inclusion of biographies, I'm putting them here for consideration by the community.  Wikipedia is not for genealogy.  Rossami (talk) 08:24, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

See also the rest of the extended family: VfD/Sarojini Kak, VfD/Avinash Kak, VfD/Subhash Kak and VfD/Jaishree Odin.
 * Delete as geneology, (family) vanity, and utter lack of notability. I do think it's possible these articles were created in good faith, but even so, they must be going. Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd  15:26, Jan 21, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete this and the rest of the extended family entries. Not notable, possible vanity, geneology. Megan1967 00:44, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, family vanity. Wyss 08:13, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge the information on him and his wife, the poet with the article on one of his children, perhaps Subhash Kak or Jaishree Odin (preferrably the latter, provided the article is kept, being perhaps most relevant as a biographical background to her field of work). / up+land 10:45, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)
