Non-notable per WP:ACADEMIC, no evidence of research online that has made significant impact in her discipline, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources. Prod contested by creator, who has claimed slight WP:COI on user talk page. MuffledThud (talk) 17:14, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

- Delete. Fails WP:ACADEMIC. H-index of 3 is very low. The teaching awards do not contribute towards notability. StAnselm (talk) 11:21, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
- Leaning keep - she has had some coverage in indian mainstream financial media. Business today has done a [http://archives.digitaltoday.in/businesstoday/20060716/cover5.html cover story] of her (along with eight others). Has been quoted in [http://www.telegraphindia.com/1041110/asp/careergraph/story_3984618.asp The Telegraph1],[http://www.telegraphindia.com/1041229/asp/careergraph/story_4188644.asp the telegraph2], [http://businesstoday.intoday.in/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1063 Business today], [http://www.india-today.com/itoday/20000313/education.html India today], [http://www.indianexpress.com/news/more-and-more-girls-join-iimc/477687/ Indian express], [http://www.financialexpress.com/old/fe20010716/inc4.html Financial express], [http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/bline/2007/06/26/stories/2007062600340700.htm business line].--Sodabottle (talk) 18:51, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

- Weak delete despite Sodabottle's helpful collection of sources. The article itself doesn't convince me she passes WP:PROF or WP:GNG, and a handful of trivial mentions in newspaper articles doesn't make much difference. The Business Today piece is less trivial, but listing her as one of the nine best business school professors selected from only three universities doesn't really impress me either. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:44, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
- weak Keep I'll accept the BT articles--that these are probably the three top schools is different than if it were three random ones. DGG ( talk ) 04:01, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- Comment: Just to clarify - the three covered institutes (IIMs A, B and C) are the top three business schools in the country (almost all rankings agree on this).. --Sodabottle (talk) 04:15, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

- Keep: The fact that all aspects of actual teaching play no role in WP: PROF seems questionable IMHO. However, that's another discussion, and - based on these criteria - it seems close to impossible to prove notability based on the 9 criteria. However, for some reason the alternative standard "the academic is more notable than the average college instructor/professor" is mentioned. Based on this, Chatterjee is without any doubt notable. She is full professor af a top-rated business school. She is cited to be known as an outstanding teacher, and is therefore obviously more often asked for an interview than even an average instructor/professor at her institution. No doubt it is debatable whether the alternative standard is to be accepted as replacement for the 9 criteria. However, even if not taken as general guideline, it is at least there to have a solid discussion basis for cases such as this. PanchoS (talk) 11:28, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. I have searched WoS in a variety of ways for her publications, e.g. for author "Chatterjee L*", "Bhattacharyya AND Chatterjee", "Bhattacharyya AND Leena C*" with and without the schools' names, etc. finding nothing (Note the erroneous way in which first name and surname are swapped in the bibliography). Some of the research titles listed in the article are not in peer-reviewed publications, but are rather simply internal "white papers". What this indicates is that none of her works are published in any of the roughly 140 mainstream journals of management or social psychology (her fields of specialty) that are indexed by WoS – clear failure of WP:PROF #1. The teaching award is from an alumni association, so it does not count as a "highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level" as described by #2. She is not an elected member of a prestigious society (#3), not in a named or distinguished chair (#5), not editor of well-established journal (#8), etc. etc. In short, none of the criteria in WP:PROF are satisfied. As David Eppstein has already mentioned above, some briefs in newspapers do not in and of themselves confer notability, and that seems to be all that is left here. Respectfully, Agricola44 (talk) 15:35, 8 March 2010 (UTC).
- Delete. The careful analysis above indicates that notability is not achieved. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:41, 9 March 2010 (UTC).
- Weak Keep - IIM is a top rated management school in India/Asia (we don’t have a reliable data to compare it with Wharton school at Penn for example – I would say IIM is as good as it gets…). Chairperson of the Placements Cell of the institute of IIM qualifies her for #5 WP:PROF. She is full professor of a top-rated business school in Asia/world. I would argue that this should be at least a weak keep. thx.--kaeiou (talk) 23:45, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
