Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Anupama Mandavilli

I recommend "delete". who is she? Just because she is quoted in the media does not make her "prominent". card reader says he is interested in her research but the entry says nothing about the research! strange.

Multiple Votes?
One concern I Have for this page is that, shouldn't there be only one vote per user on the main page and all discussion be moved to this talk page?

I'd like to make do that cleaning up, if it's okay with everyone, so that we can see what the situation is.

and many more sources.

She has also been a researcher and has presented talks at major conferences and has chaired sessions at conferences.

She is a prominent person, and deserves to be discussed.

She has also been interviewed by radio stations.

I again request that Anu Mandavilli article be kept. Here is some additional information. Anu Mandavilli is a recognized scholar, in addition to being a widely quoted and interviewd personality.


 * She chaired the session "GLOBAL CAPITAL AND LOCAL LABOR: THE POLITICS OF OUTSOURCING IN CONTEMPORARY U.S." at National Communication Association Convention, 2004, Rutgers University at NCA Chicago, 2004.


 * She presented a paper "When Geography is History: Outsourcing, Immigration and the Global Economy" at this conference.


 * She presented "When Geography is History: Outsourcing, Immigration and the Global Economy" at NCA 2004 convention.


 * She chaired the session "Critical and Cultural Studies Division Paper Session: Race is, Race Ain't: Media Pedagogies and the Production of Identity" at NCA 2004 convention..


 * Several other similar notable recognitions.

I believe that the demand to have the article about her deleted, is mischievous.

She has received lot more press coverage than a lot of other people included in Wikipedia. --Vikramsingh 20:45, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
