Saumen Kar

 * – ( View AfD View log )

It is very difficult to find evidence for this which does not originate on Wikipedia, facebook, or blogspot. In October 2011 the article was completely unsourced, so I searched for references. The vast majority of the mentions that I found were copied from this Wikipedia article. I therefore proposed deletion (PROD). The author of the article then proceeded to remove the PROD without explanation. All of the "references" that have been added to the article have either been copies from Wikipedia, blogs, or sources that don't even mention Saumen Kar. (For example, the Asuilaak Living Dictionary doesn't mention it, despite being cited twice in the article.) JamesBWatson (talk) 19:07, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - After my search, I'd have to completely agree with the nominator. The only real article I could find outside of mirrors or blogs was this one that is undated, uncredited, and looks completely generic.  Unless someone can point out some better references, I'm chalking this one up as a WP:HOAX.  SaveATreeEatAVegan 10:17, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
