[edit] Hari Ananth

Hari Ananth (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

No real claim to notablity whatsoever, no coverage in third-party sources. [1] [2]. Punkmorten 09:01, 4 January 2007 (UTC) Improving it is impossible as no sources exist. Fails WP:RS/WP:V, several points of WP:NOT and WP:COI. People who say keep fail to demonstrate the meeting of these policies. Punkmorten 13:08, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep - Ananth is becoming accredited for his role in the movie Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, and is rumored to be taking a role in the acting industry. He will undoubtedly have his own page after filming another movie, so this page may as well stay.

  • Keep - could be improved with time, as he is becoming increasingly popular among young adults. Cberlet 13:08, 5 January 2007 (UTC) —The preceding comment signed as by Cberlet (talk • contribs) was actually added by 65.26.234.226 (talk • contribs) -
  • Delete - not notable per WP:BIO. His claim to fame is hardly worth mentioning. Jayden54 11:11, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - fails WP:BIO. MER-C 11:39, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - concur with nom. Ronbo76 13:42, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. An actor with even a small role in Citizen Kane or Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is notable. --Eastmain 01:50, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete no non trivial coverage of his role, no other sourced claims to notability. Eluchil404 08:08, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Born and raised in extreme poverty and then entering at the Indian Institute of Technology meets his Bio.DoDoBirds 08:26, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Not when there is no verifiable third-party coverage about it. Punkmorten 13:08, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Keep Punkermorten, as described in his profile, is supposed to monitor pages that deal with geography, Norway, and sports. Therefore, he should leave this site alone and get a life other than Wikipedia. You're in college. You're 20. Go have fun and stop ruining everyone else's. Furthermore, Mr. Ananth is obviously not some Will Ferrel, Adam Sandler, Kal Penn, or the like, but you never know where life will take you. He may very well rise to the top of Hollywood. And then what? The British came to India and took everything from us. Now when we try to regain our status, you try and bring us down again? What is it with white people? I demand a deep and sincere apology! --Ashwin Betrabet 21:12, 9 January (UTC)
Reply -- Hi! Ashwin Betrabet, I agreed to your comments. Please make it sure whether this artilce is there in the India deletion page.DoDoBirds 04:57, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Comment readers may be interested to note that what appears to be a "Keep" vote by the username "Ashwin Betrabet" is actually "signed" with the article Ashwin Betrabet, now undergoing AfD (although its AfD notice, like that on Hari Ananth keeps being removed). -- Hoary 06:41, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Keep I saw a short clip about him while on the plane from Mumbai.--65.29.46.101 04:30, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
      • Fascinating claim, Mr/Ms IP. Would you care to provide some verification for that? -- Hoary 05:04, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
        • No, I would not. Why don't you call up Air India and ask them for the list of their programming on Mumbai to London flights from August 2006 if you're so worried about it?65.29.46.101 05:22, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
          • Because I'm not the slightest bit worried about it. If you have evidence, let's see that evidence. Till then, your anecdote is of no import. -- Hoary 05:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
            • You evidently are, otherwise you would have never made that first post. I'm right until proven wrong. Call my "anecdote" a theory and accept it.65.29.46.101 05:32, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete this silliness, and cut out the sock/meat-puppetry. -- Hoary 05:04, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete hoaxalicious, as revealed by the telling "1941 remake of" the Borat movie. JuJube 05:36, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Keep faulty editing, my friend. Madndndrumr711 12:01, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment By the way, none of the links gives any proof of this guy's notability, not even the IMDb link. JuJube 05:43, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
      • Keep IMBD does not list every single person that appears in the movie. If it did, there would by thousands of people on there. Madndndrumr711 12:01, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
        • Comment Why provide a link that does not source the page at all, then? JuJube 06:04, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
          • Keep First of all, I am not the one who posted that link. Feel free to remove it. Second, why do you care so much? Madndndrumr711 12:37, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom + sock/meatpuppetry—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 06:21, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Obvious hoax. Tintin (talk) 06:33, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I checked the sources--neither offers a hint of this person's existence. The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 06:52, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
    • And on a second note, this article was speedy-deleted while I checked sources--in any case, I endorse speedy deletion, DVD R W is right. The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 06:55, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Hoax. Even if not hoax, utterly unimportant. --Calton | Talk 06:57, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
