[edit] Riva Tholoor Philip

I looked into this one and found that an article on the same subject was VfD'ed a couple years ago (Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Rivaji). Though tempted to put on a db-repost tag, I think it would be better to subject this one to a full AfD discussion. Things do change at light speed in the Online Age. Though the prose smacks of self-promotion, there may be a chance that the article's subject has enough notability that he'd rate a Wikipedia article of his own, and thus the article would be worth retooling in a NPOV direction. However, I do not find that the man or the organization he leads are notable enough to satisfy WP:NOTE, based on my quick look for more sources on the Internet. --Dynaflow babble 07:32, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

• I have just discovered that an anon IP removed the AfD template from the article two days ago. I have warned the user and watchlisted the article (as I should have in the first place - d'oh!). --Dynaflow babble 16:23, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
• ...And the same anon just removed it again. --Dynaflow babble 07:44, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
• ...And now it was removed by the original author. --Dynaflow babble 08:16, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
