:The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep. While the article is short on independent sources, there is a near unanimous consensus that (1) the subject meets WP:PROF because of the subject's academic position; (2) the position is verifiable; and (3) that is sufficient to establish notability.

Unsourced BLP; he may be notable, but you can't prove it from these "sources"; fails WP:V. Orange Mike | Talk 01:52, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

:*This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 07:35, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Comment. If it is true that he is a distinguished professor at National Law Institute University, and if that university counts as a "major institution of higher education and research," then he passes WP:PROF #5. Someone knowledgeable with academia in India should weigh in. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 18:11, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Keep The institute seems from our web page to be a highly important law schools, and ref.1 in the article documents that he is a distinguished professor there. DGG ( talk ) 01:22, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
Keep Iqbal Singh's profile appears on the NLIU homepage, also some of his other publications appear in other searches across wikipedia under 'Iqbal Singh', for instance 'Punjab under siege' Sirvivan 10 May 2010 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vivian2009 (talk • contribs) 11:19, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
Keep: It needs more sources, but he appears to meet WP:PROFESSOR. Bearian (talk) 21:25, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
Keep. I think being distinguished professor at one of India's top three law schools should be enough, and it's easily verifiable. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:35, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
