• Delete for now unless better can be found and applied as I found some links at News, Books, Highbeam and WP:INDAFD but perhaps nothing convincingly better. Notifying past users {{U|Grutness}}, {{U|Utcursch}} and {{U|Bhadani}} and past user {{U|Yogesh Khandke}}. SwisterTwister talk 05:37, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
• Delete, with no prejudice against re-creation if more can be found. First AfD suggested notability, but none of that appears in the article. Grutness...wha? 01:16, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
• Keep: Google News and Books give some evidence why this person can be notable.Cinelover (talk) 05:26, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
• Keep: I am interested to know more about him, but I am not sure, if sufficient references are available - which year was he born, when did he graduate, what is his current job etc. He is definitely not a writer as he is an MBA with a tech back-ground J mareeswaran (talk) 12:12, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

An incomplete list, and not all major publications, I see a Lulu there, but enough for me to vote keep!! Yogesh Khandke (talk) 18:02, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

:Subject is notable per WP:AUTHOR - The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors. Yogesh Khandke (talk) 07:36, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

• Delete. Widely quoted is not notability, which needs references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements DGG ( talk ) 03:16, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
• Keep: As per user Khandke clearly notable. 111.119.239.252 (talk) 08:28, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
• Delete, press releases and being quoted are not sufficient to get past the WP:GNG. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 12:26, 29 November 2015 (UTC).

• Comment He wouldn't be widely quoted if he wasn't presumed to be an expert in his area. I agree with {{u|Yogesh Khandke}} that showing that someone is the "go to" person for a topic does add to their notability. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 22:27, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
• Weak Delete: Seems borderline delete; subject does not seem to meet WP:AUTHOR. Delta13C (talk) 22:57, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
• Delete - thanks for the refs listed above but, really, there is nothing of substance there. Basically, per DGG. - Sitush (talk) 09:32, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
