[edit] N. Venkatachala

N. Venkatachala (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Lawyer bio article created by an anon that doesn't state noteworthiness clearly. No real articles link to him. Tokek 03:18, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep. It needs some sourcing, but if you follow the link you'll see he is more than a lawyer, but a former justice on the supreme court of india; a google seems to produce quite a few news paper articles, which a lexis-nexis search confirms: 384 articles. (As the article says, he is some kind of anti-corruption crusader who's in the news a lot.) I suggest instead of deletion, we bring it to the attention of Wikipedia:WikiProject_India Bucketsofg 03:32, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep google seems to confirm that he's a former Indian surpreme court justice, as well as making the news often. Needs expansion. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:43, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep: he's also a former Times of India "Karnataka Person of the Year". (No clue what that is, but it sounds important.) —Chowbok ☠ 03:58, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep A current or former Supreme Court justice of any major country is notable. A former Supreme Court justice of the second most populous country on Earth is very notable. --Charlene 10:58, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
