Contested prod; fails Wikipedia:Notability (people). The books supposedly authored by this guy do not meet Wikipedia:Notability (books). Also, conflict of interest: the main contributors are Jadugardhaka ("Magician Dhaka" in Hindi) and Ajaydhaka. No reliable sources to support the claims made in the article ("one of top ethical hacker and cyber security consulatnt in India" or "well known personality in corporate world"). utcursch | talk 10:09, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy Delete and Salt This has been repeatedly recreated.OSborn^arf_{contributionatoration} 16:25, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even with the new refs, the article is largely unsourced and does not demonstrate real notability. It was undoubtedly written for promotional purposes by the subject himself. OSborn^arf_{contributionatoration} 20:14, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy delete A7/G11 and salt Nothing remotely resembling notability. Author also attempted to blank the AfD. See also WP:Vanispamcruftisement. Sailsbystars (talk) 18:49, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Note, there have been at least two attempts by SPAs to alter the votes in this AfD. I just fixed one of them. Other page watchers should be on the lookout for similar disruptive editing. In other news, the sources added to these articles are incidental mentions and not worth changing a vote over. Sailsbystars (talk) 23:40, 18 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
