Roger Israni (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Many people have aced their college entrance exams. Many people instruct other people on how to take exams. Many people interview others as part of the college entrance process. Roger doesn't appear to be notable at all. Bkkbrad 23:05, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Article fails to assert notability. Plus, article's author is Bellaire cardinal (apparently named after the subject's high school), which could be a COI issue. Caknuck 00:59, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Bellaire Cardinal is probably a alumni of the school or something like that since, if you look at his contributions, he has added alot to the Bellaire High School page. It is not very likely to be a COI issue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.195.254.167 (talk) 11:50, 19 December, 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as insufficiently notable. No coverage of article subject by multiple, reliable published sources that are independent of the subject. -- Satori Son 04:34, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete fails WP:BIO. SkierRMH 05:14, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, strong keep Anyone who went to school in Houston, Dallas, etc. knows Roger Israni. Anyone searching for Bellaire High -- would be interested to know that Roger is an alumni of the school. He's been featured in the Houston Business Journal (http://www.bizjournals.com/houston/stories/1998/09/14/smallb1.html)and the Houston Chronicle, honored by the city's mayor....These alone should satisfy the "multiple independent reliable sources" criteria of WP:BIO. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 207.195.254.167 (talk) 10:57, 19 December 2006 (UTC).
If this is the case, then please add the citations to the article. --Bkkbrad 18:27, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Roger Israni is popular in Houston. He is responsible for more perfect SAT scores from students than any other instructor. He was recognized by Mayor Lee Brown of Houston in front of the Houston City Council for this acheivement. He has been interviewed on ch. 11 in Houston (KHOU) and NPR. If you walk down Maple street, two blocks south of Bellaire High School, his name is carved in the sidewalk. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.16.98.247 (talk) 08:58, 22 December 2006 (UTC).
