The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was delete. In addition to the debate below, the article is very short, has little context and no references. It would have been a legitimate, if borderline, speedy deletion candidate, in my opinion. -- Kjkolb 12:04, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. I get several hits for "P K Velayudhan", who appears to be a notable person from Kerala, former Minister and KPCC General Secretary, who died at the age of 55 on May 25, 2003. What I cannot readily check is if this is the same person, but it seems at least possible. --Lambiam^Talk 16:41, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
• Remark. A link to this person was preemptively removed as "non-notable" from List of Ezhavas. May I suggest it is better to wait with such deletions until the conclusion of the AfD debate is clear? Such premature deletions of information make it harder to do research. --Lambiam^Talk 16:50, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

I removed the link because the author provided no reason for notability and Google returns zero results. The author's last name is Panakkal, which probably means the person mentioned in the article is his relative (father, probably). I would have certainly not removed the link, had there been even one Google result or a reason for establishing the notability of the person. utcursch | talk 02:50, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, bad article title, non-notable and seemingly unverifiable. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 22:43, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
