I don't believe that Rayan qualifies under GNG. In searching, I've found a lot of things written by him, but very little written about him that wasn't produced by his own ministry. I can't search in any Indian language however so it's possible there's more about him that I can't access. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 22:28, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. There are some articles about Indian theologians of dubious notability, but Rayan has two books written about him (Christian faith, a liberative praxis: theology of Samuel Rayan and Christus im Kontext und Kontext in Christus: Chalcedon und indische Christologie bei Raimon Panikkar und Samuel Rayan), and a Festschrift, (Bread and breath: essays in honour of Samuel Rayan) which easily qualifies him under WP:PROF #1.

 * I saw the second but for some reason never saw the first. You're correct; I'll withdraw. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 23:16, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
