Shuvaloy Majumdar

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This biographical article is both out of date and obviously self-promotional. A web search shows that the principal justification of this person's significance - being a visiting foreign policy scholar at the Liu Centre - is out of date - he left this position in early 2012. The next item is a reference to Cloud to Street, a project that has been inactive for several years. The claim that he "led major American democracy initiatives in Iraq and Afghanistan" is not supported by the link (to the homepage of an NGO; likewise the claim that he served as a leading figure in the Manning Centre is unsupported, with the link again only taking the user to the home page of the Centre. All in all nothing justifies retaining this article, as Majumdar is clearly not a significant figure. Joshmeister-5-0 (talk) 11:36, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete: the subject is not notable, or the article does not confirm this. Further, the article is sheer puffery. --Qwerty Binary (talk) 04:18, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
