Article listed on WP:VFD July 11 to July 17 2004, consensus was not reached however article was changed sufficiently after listing to invalidate original reason for nomination. Discussion:

Sub-stub which doesn't convince me author or work are significant. Google and co only return Wikipedia clones, and I couldn't find the book in any book databases. Birla Institute of Technology and Science does not list him on its alumini page (see: [1], framed site and hard to link; I looked under "Alumini / Birthday" and "Alumini / Acheivements (sic)"). Note: I accept more detailed information on the subject may not be available online; however unless this article can be expanded with a little more context / background information, I fear it is going nowhere.

  • Delete. Someone who knows about him will write an article later. Jay 09:44, 11 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: If the community can't verify, it's up to the article itself to establish notability. This one doesn't. Geogre 12:34, 11 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Comment : "Shashi Warrier" is a columnist and author of some repute - the name is misspelt in the title of the article. Ordinarily this would be a candidate for a relink to the correctly spelt article, but since that article doesn't exist yet ... I'd side for a delete at the moment.

    • aha - there's a name to work on. Thanks. Even a brief search reveals some useful info, e.g. http://www.bitsaa.org/sandpaper/authors/authors.html; haven't got time right now but if no-one else does I'll add a few lines in the next couple of days. Vote changed to keep.Ianb 04:47, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Moved to correct spelling. Will grow to a proper stub and article IMO. Andrewa 01:00, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)
