References include only three links, which all contain almost the exact same text. There's not wide enough coverage on this person either. A Google Search comes up with only those articles and some other links linking back to Wikipedia mirrors. I've tried to get more sources for verification, but have been unable to find any. vi5in[talk] 16:13, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I don't see any significant notability here. WP:BLP1E comes to mind. Powers T 21:24, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It is clearly bad faith nomination by User:Vivin. The reprisal initiated when the moment I reverted his pov pushing on Nair article. The details are here.
