Speedy deletion nomination of Tarun Mankad

edit
 

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Tarun Mankad, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.  Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 04:08, 23 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Tarun Mankad

edit
 

The article Tarun Mankad has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

While I believe this was submitted in good faith, I'm afraid that the subject of this article may not yet meet the notability guidelines for academics, and the article seems almost certainly to be an autobiography, which is seldom a good idea. Some of the content is about his work rather than about him, and some of it is taken without verification of permission from [1], which is against our copyright policies. I believe this article should be deleted without prejudice, to be recreated in the future by somebody other than the subject when the subject verifiably meets the inclusion guidelines.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
