IMO, no proof that he meets Wikipedia:Notability (academics) Redtigerxyz Talk 12:17, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

I think it would be highly unfair to even include this article for deletion. It would be a great disservice to the very cause for which Wikipedia stands. I have read the Wikipedia:Notability (academics) criteria and I strongly feel that he meets not just one, which is the minimum required, but at least three or four--- no 1, 4, 5, and 6. Dr K M Tiwary retired as the Professor and head of the department of English of Patna University in early nineties. After that he has been working as the professor in various universities in Yemen till date, some reference for which has been given in the article. He also had worked as a professor in Some university in Iraq in the early part of his career, though this is not mentioned in the article. The very fact he has worked as a professor not just in a reputed university in India but has still been working (he must be nearing 80 now) in a university in Taiz in Yemen, that some of his articles published in international journals and his books are being quoted by the linguists the world over (the reference for which are available in the article) should be enough to close this discussion.

- Delete I'm not seeing any significant in-depth independent coverage. Stuartyeates (talk) 20:55, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
- I think his contribution in the form of articles published in the national and international journals, books, editing etc. as given in the article Kapil Muni Tiwary are enough to prove that coverage are independent, in-depth and and significant. May I also draw the attention of the editors to spare their time to see the Talk:Kapil Muni Tiwary of the article how This article has been rated as Start-Class on the project's quality scale. by WikiProject Biography, on 12 November 2011 itself? It was already rated as This article has been rated as Start-Class on the project's quality scale. by WikiProject India long back. I only wonder why this discussion for deletion should arise now when the article has started rising the ladder of rating through the various projects and teams.

- Prof K M Tiwary was held in esteem as a professor of Literature and Linguistincs as much in Patna University from where he retired in the early nineties as he he is recognised for his erudition in Taiz University today.[1]— Preceding unsigned comment added by Arunbandana (talk • contribs) 16:08, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

- KEEP: Article satisfies WP:N. KM Tiwary is recognized as a notable linguist of India as per this book cited in the wiki entry. The article also satisfies WP:RS with reports from Yemen Times and his peer-reviewed articles. However, author needs to avoid Original Research, needs to wikify the article and needs to make the article more encyclopedic.

- KEEP On the basis of the points raised above in support of keeping the article and the improvements made in the article by adding the contents and the references I am sure the article will be retained. Moreover may I request the editors to help improve the entries made in the reference as per the wiki standards. Arunbandana (talk • contribs) 14:00, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep: Criteria 1 - Discourse-Centered Approach to Language and Culture by J Sherzer American Anthropologist, 1987, 235 citations. The metadescription from a Google Scholar search says, "I draw this example from a short article by KM Tiwary dealing with a grammatical process widespread in India and beyond, known as the echo-word construction (Tiwary 1968). The language Tiwary describes is Bhojpuri, spoken in northern India." Saw a few other works like this but with less than 20 citations. This one so far has the highest number of citations from an independent reliable source. For instance, Social structure and peer terminology in a black adolescent gang by T Labov, Language in Society 1982, Cambridge University Press with 17 citations. The Google Scholar metadescription goes like this, "Diagrams I made of the Jets and other street clubs have already been used in linguistic studies of urban black English (see W. Labov, Cohen, Robins ... where the initial element of the tag is a proper name, such as in "Bell and 'em." Tiwary (1968) described a tag with a somewhat ..." There are more like this, of course.
