Sai Gunturi

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

I have received a request from Sai that his entry be here deleted, I am not sure how Wikipedia usually handles BLP requests like this, but since notability is questionable for Sai in the first place (only one notable event related to him and he is already listed in the National Spelling Bee aricle). I hope that this entry can be deleted without too much hubub. If there is a problem with this line of reasoning, I hope that someone can come up with something that satisfies all parties.-Cronholm144 10:15, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Also, I think twinkle killed the old debate, I don't want to break the system further, so could someone move this to WP:AFD Sai Gunturi 2nd nom. Thanks and sorry for the trouble, afd is not my typical hangout.—Cronholm144 10:21, 17 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete I believe persons of low or unclear notability (i.e. those not legally considered "public figures") should have the right to have articles on themselves removed if they choose. The request sounds reasonable to me. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:33, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment It seems odd that there were no links to the previous or next winners of the Spelling Bee in that article. Based on that, and the lack of any other claim to notability, I see no reason not to delete the article per the subject's wishes... assuming that the nominator is satisfied that the person making the request is indeed Sai Gunturi.

 * Yes, I am satisfied. We have remained in occasional contact since our highschool days. If the deleting admin needs additional confirmation I can provide it. —Cronholm144 00:43, 18 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per above reasoning. Bearian 17:11, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing has changed since my original AfD nomination....Lindentree 02:59, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. The subject's request for removal - assuming that it's true - should not be a basis for its deletion. The appropiate channel for such a request is Biographies of living persons. --Brewcrewer 02:54, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment If this article gets deleted someone ought to take a look at the following Spelling Bee winners with their own articles: Katharine Close; George Abraham Thampy; Nupur Lala; Jody-Anne Maxwell;  Rebecca Sealfon;  Wendy Guey;  Amanda Goad. --Brewcrewer 02:54, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BLP1E. --Brewcrewer 02:54, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
